NURSES: What you need to know

Cassey

@maddie02 Hi, sorry I'm not familiar with that route to PR. I called AHPRA but they said to just read on their website to assess your qualification. What i can suggest is just do the usual guaranteed route which is either through bridging and conversion course. Bridging is a 3month course which is actually shorter than the Grad Cert route. It's always best to go through a route that's been done by the majority if not all at least you're 100% sure that it does have a pathway to becoming an RN here and at the same time will enable you to apply for PR.

@Cassey thank you for your informative response po 🙂 pero sabi kasi sakin ng agent ko is that we'll apply for ahpra first then once it's okay na proceed to Grad certificate course then after that pwede na daw ako mag PR agad. Though I know my agency is well known naman, I'm just wondering if meron ako same case sainyo 🙂

Cassey

@maddie02 Hmmm, I'm not so sure with that... I haven't heard of any one who's done Grad Cert. and I don't think may short cut to PR application. You will still have to go through AHPRA registration and ANMAC skills assessment as you are an international nurse. Plus you will have to wait to be invited before you can lodge for PR application. Anyway, all the best. 🙂

Hi @Cassey ! Im new sa thread. Thank you sa infos. Ask ko lang, RN ako sa pinas pero yung experience ko sa pinas is past 5 years na. Enrolled nurse ako ngayon dito sa SG, 5 years experience. Gusto ko sana magpassess sa AHPRA if eligible ako to take BP, Ano ma-advise mo? Thank you. 🙂

hello mam. 4 days ago. i got the Anmac LoD-Mofidied skills assessment(Nominated occupation:Registered nurse-Medical). yung nakaindicate sa Letter.sa experience ko 2006-2012- PH hospital experience( Registered Medical) din 2012-2015-Ph( Nurse educator).

meaning di po credited pag-nag-apply na ako sa skillselect itong nurse educator at sa visa 189 application? balak ko magsubmit ng EoI baka mainvite ako sa Aug.9 na round.

salamat po.

@mikaaaaa Hi, unfortunately, hindi counted yung experience mo as Enrolled Nurse kasi ang inaapplyan mo is for Registered Nurses. Since yung experience mo as RN is past 5yrs na I don't think you'll be eligible for bridging. With that, you can do a conversion course if you want to register as an RN here in Au or you can continue your EN career. You will still need to check with AHPRA though if you are qualified to practice as an EN here in Au.

Cassey

@revsky Hi, kung magaapply ka ang ANZSCO mo bale is yung sa RN-Medical. And yes, hindi credited yung as Nurse Educator since you only have to choose one over the other. You can't claim points for the Nurse Educator as well. Just be careful with the points you're claiming since most refusals are due to over claiming points. God bless on your application. Hope you'll get an invite. O:-)

Hi @Cassey thank you! May nagsabi kasi sakin ang ibang option is bumalik ako sa Pinas at magpractice as RN sa hospital kahit 3 months just to complete yung recency of practice lang then magpaassess sa Ahpra. Ano kaya kung ipush ko nalang magpassess sa ahrpa ngayon since magkaiba naman sila ng standard pag sinabing AuEN at SgEN try ko sanang gamitin tong nursing experience ko dito as my recency of practice. If ever ang decision outcome ng ahpra/nmba is refusal without referral for BP, makakaffect ba to sa next na pagpapaassess ko ng registration if ever makapagtapos ako ng conversion course?

Cassey

@mikaaaaa You're welcome. That's another option as well kung gusto mo talagang ipursue yung bridging course. Just like what I've said it wouldn't be counted dahil magkaiba ang scope of practice ng EN with RN. It should be the SAME JOB TITLE para marecognize siya as recency of practice. Even with the ANMAC assessment it wouldn't pass as a part of your RN experience. EN here is Division 2 Nurse while RN is Division 1 Nurse. They are very strict here in Au with regards to that. It's not interchangeable.

O this RoP, nakita ko na. 🙂 Thank you again @Cassey , great help.

Hi po ulit ms @cassey! Ask ko lang po yung sa COE ano po need na naka indicate? thanks po!

revsky

@Cassey thank you so much mam. God bless.

Cassey

@mrsespejo Wala namang format for that. Make sure there is company letter head and just the usual COE provided by the HR.

mrsespejo

Thanks po ms @Cassey! may nabasa po kasi ako na dapat daw po my full time na naka indicate and hours of work per week?

@mrsespejo Hi, pinagawa din ako dati ng COE dapat may nakalagay na word na "FULLTIME" at no. of hours per week and yung job description/responsibilities kasama din sa COE.
