are stays in a nursing homes in Italy covered under universal health care

are stays in a nursing homes in Italy covered under universal health care ?
I am in the process of becomming an Italian citizen via my father's birth. If I retire in Italy, I may need a nursing home in the distant future. Would my stay be covered under the Universal Health care system ?

That really just depends on the provider or insurance care you have.I would call and ask them.I think you will have to sign up in Italy or do a transfer to European care system.Good luck

Are there english speaking nursing schools near Vicenza, Italy

Are there english speaking nursing schools near Vicenza, Italy?
I am moving to Vicenza, Italy so study abroad programs would not apply to me. I'm looking for English speaking nursing schools within 1-2 hours of Vicenza.

I seriously doubt there will be any professional school in Italy, such as the one you are looking for, that is English speaking. You will find English speaking Universities in Humanities (mostly by American or English Universities that have subsidiaries here) and Economics, but not in professional faculties. Some courses might be taught in English, but they are extremely rare. For sure you need Italian to be able to graduate. What is commonly done for Italian nurses that need to speak English is to take language lessons, but this is not your case. My suggestion would be for you to take Italian lessons first and then enroll in the Nursing school (which is a University program here in Italy)

Registered Nurse Going Abroad

Registered Nurse Going Abroad?
I am currently working on a BS for Psychology and I plan on entering an accelerated program to become a registered nurse afterwards. After this, I intend to pursue a Doctorate degree (most likely in Psychology). While I'm getting my doctorate I want to study abroad, perhaps in Italy or somewhere else in Europe. Is it possible to do this? And would I be able to maybe get a part-time nursing job while I am overseas?

You will have to get a work permit... but there is a world-wide shortage of doctors and nurses - so I don't think you will have much trouble finding a job in that field good luck
