NURSES: What you need to know

julypearl

Thanks for your reply! The TOR still needs to be indicated for APHRA still, right? And I heard before Aphra will give you a letter to refer to PRC or CHED, but now I’m not sure. The self check asks for payment first and no other requirements indicated.

Anyone who’s already in the STEP 3 after Self Check here?

Your current copy of TOR would suffice, no need to get a new one. Which letter are you referring to? To satisfy criterion 2 and 3? Not necessary because Phil nursing grads will not be able to satisfy that requirement.

Good day po. Sinu po yung may referral to bridging program na, then nagsend sa RO to transfer it to OBA referral? May naka-received na po ba ng referral to OBA instead? Salamat po.

I have questions po.

Paano ko po machecheck application status ko? Agency ko po nag submit kaso parang close sila because of Covid. Sa site kasi ng Ahpra hinahanap Registration number ko. Kaso di ko alam.
Nag send po ako ng Cogs sa Cogs@ahpra.gov.au

Tatanggapin kaya nila cogs ko through that?

Thanks

Kelan po nag submit ng application ang agency nyo? Dumaan na po kayo sa bridging program, nursing conversion or OBA?

You can use the web inquiry form to inquire about the status of your registration... or you can try entering your name in the registry check just in case your registration has pushed through already.
Di ako familiar sa email address... ang pagkakaalam ko tanging ang mga registration bodies ng other countries ang pwedeng mag-send ng email copy ng COGS so pag galing sa private email address like gmail or yahoo, di nila tatanggapin. Kung hard copy ang COGS from PRC... I am not sure kung nagpapadala sila gamit official email ng PRC... much better na hingi ka na lang ng envelop na may letterhead nila, lagay mo ang COGS doon at padala mo via international express mail or courier like DHL, Fedex... expect ka nga lang ng delays dahil sa mga lockdowns.

Hello friends! Ok pa ba kumuha ng Cert III Aged Care and Disability na lang, or Diploma in Nursing, para maging Enrolled nurse sa Australia? Even if Bachelors Degree Holder naman ako dito sa PI? Would it mean downgrading nako pag ganun? Mejo hindi kase kaya ng budget ko ang Masters and BSN sa Oz? its so expensive. Please advice mga friends! Salamat sa mga tutulong. =)

Pero sya po ay RN sa PH. Normally how many days po ang mag assess so far sa APHRA?

https://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/Codes-Guidelines-Statements/FAQ/recency-of-practice.aspx

What is recency of practice?
Recency of practice means that a nurse or midwife has maintained an adequate connection with, and recent practice in the profession/s since qualifying for, or obtaining registration.
What do you mean by practice?
Practice means any role, whether remunerated or not, in which the individual uses their skills and knowledge as a health practitioner in their profession. Practice in this context is not restricted to the provision of direct clinical care. It also includes using professional knowledge (working) in a direct nonclinical relationship with clients, working in management, administration, education, research, advisory, regulatory or policy development roles, and any other roles that impact on the safe, effective delivery of services in the profession.

Hi guys,

I need your comments/suggestions po. We are in Tasmania under 489 visa. RN ako sa Pinas pero walang experience kasi non-medical ang naging work ko sa SG. Since wala po akong experience, hindi ako pede sa bridging. Ano po ba ang conversion course? Ano po ang best route to become an RN here in OZ? Thank you po in advance. 🙂

Nursing conversion course is regular nursing program with some of your prior learning credited. Since wala kang nursing related experience, that would be the best route for you to take. Just be sure that the course you take leads to AHPRA registration... I've seen some programs that do not lead to registration.

Hi, I'm based here in Sydney and working as an RN sa Aged care. Gusto ko sana mag apply sa VIC or SA as RN and may chance ako magpa-relocate sa employer ko ng work if ever. Mahihirapan po kasi ako sa NSW, atm my points are sitting at 70 + (5) ako and until now take pa rin ng take ng PTE until ma superior tapos NAATI naman sa July pa. Gusto ko lang mag plan ahead and baka may ma recommend kayo agent sakin na pwede mag assist or advice ano next move ko? Salamat po!

Good day po... madali po ba ngyn makahanap ng work ang nurses with visa 189 jan sa Au considering the current travel restrictions na nka-impose?

LovellaEllen

@Elaine ER/ICU/Nursing home nurse madali lang.. anything related sa Theatre/Endo/Recovery/Surgery or ortho wards, mahirap/walang hiring.. Lahat ng hospital dito cancelled yung non-urgent/non-emergency surgeries for both public and private hospitals as mandated ng government.. I'm an anaesthetics nurse, 2x a week na lang surgeries namin depende if may emergencies.. crosstraining karamihan sa amin to ICU, ward or ER..
