@girmarie Email the school if they will honor serology test done in Ph. If you can do it in Ph, then do it there so it’s less of a hassle for you. I don’t think covered siya ng insurance, you’ll have to confirm it with your provider.

Cassey

@Akijo Nope, I don’t think alam nila dito sa Au yung DFA red ribbon.

girmarie

@Cassey Nag apply po ako ng Deakin. Yung sa case nyu po ba dati nagpa serology po kau?

cutie_rhach

hi @girmarie, better do it in PH kasi hindi yun covered of OSHC mo.

@Cassey Hi mam good afternoon? I read that you've been answering most of the questions regaring working in Australia.

I would just like to ask if you have any ideas regarding the possibility of taking up a bridging program in new zealand and having registered there and afterwards apply it in australia for converting to australian nursing license? This is because a friend of mine suggested this kind of pathway since bridging program and cost of living are much cheaper as compared in australia.

Hoping for your kind response.

Thank you

Hi. Received mY LOE. Im planning to take BP on March. SCU has intake for March. Any feedback sa scu? How hard ba? Somebody told me its 15 weeks, 8am to 6pm, monday to friday. Parang ang hirap yata.

Cassey

@tympanic123 Hi, that is one of the options that you have. I’ve heard na mas mura nga BP sa New Zealand. If hindi pa magroroll over yung changes sa AHPRA, it should be okay until then. Try to do it as soon as you can.

tympanic123

@Cassey Thankl you very much for your response. That will be under the "transman" if im not mistaken?. If for example il be doing it in new zealand what will be my next step?. I will apply it to ahpra? or nmca? thank you

@tympanic123 hi! If you’re planning to take CAP here in NZ, you can apply thru their nursing council website. http://www.nursingcouncil.org.nz/

If plan mo mag move to australia, papaconvert mo licence mo.

Cassey

@tympanic123 Yes, it’s under the Trans Tasman mutual recognition Act. Once you’re an NZ nurse, you have to register in Au through AHPRA. Then to apply as a PR here, you’ll have to go through ANMAC Assessment as well.

@tympanic123 May mga taong ganyan talaga ang gumagawa. NZ then Australia I can tell because I live in NZ and actually know people who transferred (right away or a few years later).

Nag reply na RO ko. Asking for further documents.

1) nagkamali ako sa middle name ko sa ICHC. Pero nag email ako sa kanila and asking to reconsider change in middle name since ung passport ko nmn is tama and the consent form is same nmn ng full name ko.

2) Statement of sevice. They need me to resubmit na naka state dapat fulltime at ung number of works hours per week. Problem is i ask my HR and they wouldnt changed the format at ang head nurse ayaw mag bigay nun at sa hr lng daw. Galing diba. Pano kaya toh. Nag ask ako alternative docs sa RO kaso hnd pa nareply.

3) COGS. Hnd ako kasi makapg provide ng COGS from OMan. Hnd kasi talaga kami binibigyan ng MOH sa mga sister hospitalsna government. Haist. Nag ask din ako ng kung ano pwed ipang support. Haist. Stress.

Help any advise from you who experienced this.

Medyo mahirap to dahil kung mali ang pangalan sa ginawang record check hindi na reliable ang criminal history check. You might be forced to have a new check.

You can supplement COE with references from nurse supervisors/chief nurse/head nurse kung ayaw maglagay ang HR ng ibang details.


3) COGS. Hnd ako kasi makapg provide ng COGS from OMan. Hnd kasi talaga kami binibigyan ng MOH sa mga sister hospitalsna government. Haist. Nag ask din ako ng kung ano pwed ipang support. Haist. Stress.

No idea on this one, sorry.

@lizzie86 ill try. Pero. Mahigpit ung Admin nmn. Hnd sila gagawa nyan. Not unless me endrosement letter from our superior. Grabe. Toxic.

danjoe03

@cucci thanks for the reply. With ICHC its ok na. They will change my results with the correct middle name.

Ill try my best to ask for the statement of sevise kasi sa amin. Junior nurse, senior nurse, shift supervisor, duty matron, unit manager then director of nursing na. So try ko sa shift supervisor mag request. Haha. Kasi duty matron pataas eh local na.

Akijo

Hi guys, pwede po ako humingi ng sample format ng CV for ahpra? salamat po in advance sa mga sasagot

Akijo

@danjoe03 Naguluhan lang ako sis, kasi nag ffill up ako ng ICHC meron yong parang icon beside sa Given Name na part, may icclick po doon na yes or no sa given name, ni attached ko po ung screenshot nya, pano po kaya ito?

danjoe03

@Akijo keep it as it is. As far as i know ha hehe.

Hi guys! For the statement of service, is it okay na ang charge nurse ang mag sign? Hindi din kasi detailed ang binigay ng HR.

@sgl663 I was from UAE. there are two places where you can have your docs ctc'd, however it doesn't come cheap. From the Philippine embassy which is about 100aed/page, and from the consul or AU embassy which is 179aed/page back in 2016 yun. Nung 2015 free lang sya e. Ginamit ko lang yun once kasi I really needed a document to be ctc'd asap. I suggest though na ipadala mo nalang sa Pinas lahat ng docs mo and have them certified. Mura pa din kahit ipa DHL back and forth. Cost me around 3000Php for all my documents including my wifes. Dito sa AU, libre lang mga services na ganyan so if vivisit ka or you know someone who will, pwede mo din ipagawa dito.

dy3p

@sgl663 statement of service for ahpra ba yan? Kung yung sa Ahpra, pwede yan. Saken, CRN ko alng nag sign. Pero dun sa application na ng PR, kinailangan yung from HR.

Akijo

@danjoe03 ung sa statement of service ko reg sa number of hours, nilagay ung total number of hours that I incurred sa work, pero hindi sila naglagay ng hours ko per week, okay la din kaya un? pahirapan na din mag request ng bagong coe neto sa previous work ko

Cassey

@Akijo Check the firstpage, andun yung template for the Statement of Service (COE)

sgl663

thanks @dy3p

danjoe03

@Akijo depende siguro sa RO mo. Ako kasi ung COE na inissue sa akin is naka specify kng ung exclusive dates of employment. Hnd naka state ung fulltime and number of working hours per week. So early this morning I called my RO. She advised me that I can get the document from my Senior Nurse. I told her kasi no one will issue me other documents aside from the COE from admin, or unless i resigned. Also, she told me to just indicate “full-time”. No need for the number of hours per week.

I suggest that call your RO. They will advise you based on your situation.
