NURSES: What you need to know

dval

@babie iba ata yun msn na master of science in nursing tsaka yung master of nursing practice. Yun master of nursing practice is mostly for those career shifters. Yun may ibang course na natapos gusto magnursing. Nun naginquire ako sa IDP, yan din pinakuha sakin. May certain unis lang na nagooffer nyan na naglelead to aphra registration kaya check mo maige. Unfortunately for me, sa monash lang ata ung may ganun sa melbourne na recognized ng aphra. Okay sana kaso ang mahal. What I did, nagconsult ako sa aecc, willing naman sila to submit my papers sa uni as bachelor ulit. Maganda sa master of nursing practice kasi kung may dependent ka, pwede sya magwork full time. Yan sabi sakin dati sa IDP.

Hi po. Would you mind sharing po steps in getting offer letter sa ACN and anung visa po kinuha nyu? Thanks

babie

@dval hi im sorry oo master of nursing practice pala yon hehe yan din recommendation ng IDP at ng AMS sa akin mag masteral. meron din akong dependent.

dval

@babie complete na ba documents mo? Sinabihan ako sa AMS, obsolete na raw un pinag aralan ko g nursing kasi since 2010 pa.. pero nagtry pa din ako sa iba. Tingin ko mas okay yan master of nursing practice kasi 2 years lang talaga. Sabi ng AMS sakin, pag sa deakin daw ako baka raw 3 years ang ipakuha skain kasi obsolete na un previous study ko. So nagtry ako sa ACU at La Trobe.

babie

@dval oo on the process pa. Mag mnp ka nlang hindi ko rin alam if ano outcome san location mo?

dval

@babie outcome nyan Rn div 1 nurse din sa aphra. check mo dun sa course outcome ng school mo. Sa melb sana un target ko kaya lang monash lang un meron ganun na accredited sa aphra. and ang mahal sa monash kaya i tried other options.

babie

@dval yes and mahal. we tried looking into that rin. kasi wala kaming preferred state. okay lang kami kahit saan. meron ding sa perth. pero mas okay tong une. sana lang tanggapin kami hehe. may kamahalan rin. pero go lang tayo ng go.

babie

@dval my only concern is if masyado bang mahirap mag masteral. takot ako sa thesis haha

dval

@babie jan din dapat ako nun eh sa une. Kaso kasi nasa melb un sponsor ko. Sabi nun taga idp nakausap ko, di raw sya un parang masteral as in masteral na madaming thesis. Kasi more daw un sa MSN. Kaya mo yan. Yes, sana matanggap tayo. Mejo lately lang ata yan naffer kaya konti pa lang din naka exp.

heyitsjovy

@babie hi. Ano exp required for mnp?

babie

@heyitsjovy hi, ung sa akin po, wala akong experience. grad ako ng 2009 un lang binigay na option sa akin ng counselor ko para mataas ang chance ma approve, hindi rin sigurado still. but yan ung binigay nila sa akin kaisa mg bachelor

heyitsjovy

@babie Ako din wala exp.. Latest ko 6mos nung 2015 pero wala ako mapproduce na coe kc may 2yr bond dun sa hosp before sila magrelease ng coe. Sa amin 2yrs bsn nirecommend.. Ano name ng consultancy firm mo?

Hi @Cassey last work experience ko is nung July 2012 pa (2009-2012) then naiba na ko ng field possible ba na kung kukuha ako at least 3 months work experience as a nurse ulit ngayon, then kung magreregister ako sa AHPRA maapprove kaya yun and credit nila young previous 3 yrs experience ko? Hope to get reply from you. Thanks

Cassey

@kishy Hi, ANMAC ang magkicredit ng years of experience mo. Unfortunately, there is no clear cut answer to your question because I don't exactly know how they assess work experience. It would depend on the documents that you will submit.

kishy

@Cassey What do you think I can do first for me to know that they will credit my work experience before I shell out money to my agency?

lizzzie

Hi Ms. @Cassey mabilis po ba magprocess ng papers kay ahpra? if ever ako lang mag process ng mga papers ko at ako na rin magsubmit ng mga docs sa knila? Yung sa agency kasi 25k processing fee, sila lang halos magprocess kay ahpra.

thank you po!

Cassey

@kishy Try to find out if IDP or AECC can help you process your papers, they're free of charge.
Just like what I've told you I can't say whether it'll be credited or not and even if you call ANMAC they'll just tell you that they need to see your papers because they don't do assessment thru phone.

Cassey

@lizzzie Hi, you can definitely do it by yourself. Just do a lot of readings, you can find the documents needed in the first page of this thread. If you have any questions, just ask it here in the forum.

Cassey

@kristinamagbual Hi, kindly pls see the first page of this thread for the requirements. You need to take the English test first then after that you can collate your documents and send it to AHPRA through POST. The address would depend on the state where you are planning to study. Pls see the AHPRA's website for the address. When you receive your ELIGIBILITY LETTER from AHPRA, you can then start processing your visa.

babie

I already got my conditional offer for master in nursing practice. Thank god. Sana maka lusot sa gte assessment ng school.

babie

@heyitsjovy hi. I think dapat bsn grad. Kasi wala nman ako experience as a nurse. 5 years gap

@Cassey hello po, I am almost in the final stage of my application, mgbbyad na po ng tuition thru loan, meron po ba kayong kilala na nag aral na ngloan muna pero naging ok namn? Medyo knkbahan na sana mabayaran ko even i am a student there in australia

Cassey

@arke1084 Hello, magbabayad ka ba once na magstart ka rito sa Au as student? Depende yun kung magkano ang kailangan mong bayaran. Aside from your loan, kailangan mo ng living expenses din.

Hi! Newbie here. Just completed my documents for the AHPRA and will send the application this month. They updated the AGOS-40 form as well effective Sept 6,2017. If I get the eligibility from AHPRA this year and able to enroll to a school for BP this year, am I included already for the 6 months bridging next year? Is the processing of papers right now lengthy than before? Thank you!

ishtar

Also, the fee for the AHPRA application increased to 660 AUD.
