I heard about Health Carousel through a friend and colleague. The process took over 20 months, however, retrogression was the major cause of delay. All thanks to my IDA Nancy, she took it upon herself to keep me updated on the progress, she was responsive to all my questions and always reassured me that I was in a safe place. which is all I needed during the waiting time. They made my arrival with my spouse and kids so easy especially when I had my last baby, they were swift with everything. My advice to my colleague is that there is always light at the end of the tunnel, never give up, I know it can be draining! But be reassured, it is worth the wait. Thank you PassportUSA for going through this process with me, and for the encouragement and advice, even though I was about to lose my mind, Nancy will always say "You are on the right track Ezinne". Thank you PassportUSA for making my American dream come to reality

I have signed my contract with Health Carousel in 2022 after learning about this agency from one of my close friends who achieved their American dream through Health Carousel and the whole process just took two years for me. We are sincerely thankful to Health Carousel for fulfilling our American dream into reality.
My PassportUSA advisors, Ms. Thao and Ms. Brianna has provided great support since the beginning. We are extremely thrilled to start our new beginning in the United States.
We would highly recommend HC for any nurse who is trying to aspire their dream to settle and work in the United States.
My favorite moment with PassportUSA was receiving a mail from Ms. Brianna extending a job-offer letter from a facility in South Carolina.

I trusted PassportUSA with my American Dream and US journey and they did not disappoint. They were very transparent and offered all the assistance we needed to be able to adjust to our life here easily. They also treated us like family. We felt their genuine concern for us especially when I got sick with Covid twice while I was pregnant in 2020, when I gave birth, when both my parents passed away, they were always there to provide support. I don't think any other agency can compare to what PassportUSA has done for me and my family.

Our parent company, Health Carousel, began with a mission to ethically recruit foreign-educated healthcare professionals, alleviating staffing challenges in the US healthcare system. As the industry evolved, so did our vision.
Beyond easing staffing pressures, we aimed to enrich the lives of both nurses and patients. This transformation led to the creation of the PassportUSA program, dedicated to helping nurses achieve their American dream. By bridging the gap between skilled healthcare professionals and facilities, we not only fill positions but also ignite careers and transform lives, one success story at a time.
