khurama · June 2015

-Pwede po bang makapag work ang isang RN sa pinas sa isang Nursing Home sa Australia kahit na hindi naka pag take ng Age Care 3 or 4?
-Im applying for a student visa, kaso marketing yung course na kukunin ko kasi mas mura, pero di pa final... Need your advice po... thanks

from what i know, most aged care facilities need a cert 3 or 4 pra mk work. d kasi nila fully recognized anh RN dito kya may bridging or conversion or bachelors degree.

khurama · June 2015

-i see. thanks a lot po sa confirmation. yun din kasi sabi ng friend ko sa aussie, kelangan daw talagang may Age Care Certificate.

kymme · June 2015

mdali lng nmn at cheaper dw compared sa bachelors. but ako, i will take bachelors degree sa nursing this july

khurama · June 2015

mag-kano pala budget for bachelor Kymme? plano ko kasi mag student visa, pero cheaper courses lang kukunin ko tapos ipon para mag BN in the future.

kymme · June 2015

@khurama tuition (1 sem) and OHSC (1year) 450k. ung mga kakilala ko, ng cert muna sila tas pg nk ipon na, mg bridging. pero depende na un kung mtanggap sa AHPRA

kymme · June 2015

@khurama kelan pala lipad mo

khurama · June 2015

-ang mahal talaga ng tuition ng BN sa Australia.

-this Oct sana alis ko- in God's will. pero di ata ako qualified sa bridging kasi last exp ko as a nurse was last Nov 2010 pa. 1yr and 10months lang. last 5 yrs pa yun.

-student visa kunin ko, pero nagdadalawang isip ako if marketing or age care course kukunin ko - sa marketing kasi mga 150-170k lang budget makakalabas na, pero sa age care mga 230-250k ata. medyo nalilito pa ako kung sang path kukunin ko.

-any advice kymme???

kymme · June 2015

@khurama depende kasi un sa budget mo. nkpag lodge ka na ba? kasi mgtatanong sila dun sa form kung bakit ng marketing ka instead of nursing. and u need to have a satisfying answer pra ma consider as GTE at pra ma grant visa

and dun sa brdiging, sabi nila, at least 2 years exp dw.

for me, mas mganda pg aged care or disability kunin pra un experience mo dun as carer, bka ma count un as experience. un ang gnwa ng mga kakilala ko.

but in the end, ikw pa rin mg decide kung ano gusto mo. make sure it makes u happy

khurama · June 2015

di pa ako nakapag-lodge - pero ready na Docs ko - meron din kasing agency na makakatulong saken para gumawa ng letter/form kung bakit marketing ang kukunin ko - pero after hearing the advice of my friend na nasa aussie, pati advice mo and parents ko, i think age care 3 kukunin ko Kymme.

-may alam ka ba na magandang school sa Brisbane for BN Kymme? yung pwede akong maka pag work while studying? plano ko kasing mag BN after age care.

kymme · June 2015

mas mganda kc pg related ung kunin mo dun sa education background mo dito. mgagamit mo yan pg mg apply na tayo ng PR. di ako kabisado sa brissy kc perth ako e. ang as long as ur on student visa, we can work 40 hours/fortnight and unlimited hours on school break

khurama · June 2015

I agree Kymme. salamat sa advice mo ha. God bless our journey sa Australia.

kymme · June 2015

@khurama God bless satin. sana mganda future natin dun

valiantboy · June 2015

Kung wala kang cert 3 or 4, typically kapag 2nd or 3rd year na mga BN cinoconsider nila for a job as PCA. It is the prerogative of the manager o company rules. At kung may nagapply na may cert 3 at nagplacement sa kanila bakit hindi nila kukunin yun di ba?

Medyo malaking gamble yung wala kang initial funds tapos tingin mo makakahahanap ng work within the first 3-6 months. Kung hindi ka magtiyatiyaga within the first 3-6 months usually hindi lalapit yung work sa iyo.

I'm not discouraging you pero meron talagang nagco-course to course. Paminsan yun feeling ko sapat lang yung inipon para sa next tuition at student visa application. Meron din naman na nakakayanan from aged care to enrolled nursing to registered nurse. O from aged care straight to nursing.

Make sure you factor in work, expenses, nursing requirements and visas para sa goal mo.

bytubytu · June 2015

Why make a complicated choice such as this?

RN ka na which is mas may convenient options ka. Kung marketing ka then mag shift back ka muli ka sa nursing, ang laking oras at pera ang sinayang mo, di ba? Kung mag Cert 3 or 4 ka, parang ganun din nasayang mong oras at pera.

Marami akong kilalang nag Cert 3/4, ang laking sisi nila kasi may mga paraan naman para maging RN sila agad. Ang laking hinayang nilang nakinig sila sa mga agencies na iyan.

kymme · June 2015

@bytubytu so you're saying na dpat ung kunin is ung mging RN na pathway like bachelor and bridging? kasi july intake ako ng bachelor e. sana ok ung napili ko. d kasi ako pwd sa bridging kc 1 year volunteer work lang ako.

bytubytu · June 2015

@kymme

Pwede ko po mag bridging. Just so you know, accepted ng AHPRA ang volunteer so long as it says that you work as a "registered nurse". Even if you read AHPRA back and forth, walang terms doon na kailangan paid ka nag work. Paid experience matters with DIBP not AHPRA.

I would highly recommend that you take bridging or conversion course.

kymme · June 2015

@bytubytu yes po. will start with my bachelors course this july po. d ako ng bridging kc ang ikli lng ng panahon. bka p ako mk adjust nyan kya mg bachelors nlng ako.

bytubytu · June 2015

Gaano katagal yan? 1 year ba?

kymme · June 2015

@bytubytu yes 1 year po

revsky · June 2015

@kymme mam, ano po yung process sa application ng conversion at minimum bandscore ng ielts? at anong school ng ng-offer ng conversion? balak ko po sana next year. salamat po!

kymme · June 2015

@revsky the ielts score would actually depende sa school. some requires an all 7, some at least 6.5, or an overall band score of 7. depende lang talaga un sa school. i suggest u need to seek a counsellor pra di masyado mahirapan sa requirements and processing. there are counselores for free. as in my case, sa IDP Philippines ako lumapit and it was really smooth. and dpat process ahead of time kasi some papers or requirements require a long time to process

revsky · June 2015

@kymme thanks a lot sa information po. ano required IELTS score sa ECU mam at per term po ba ang payment ng tuition o monthly? salamat po!

kymme · June 2015

@revsky minimum 6.5 and overall 7 if im not mistaken po. bsta mei 6.5 ako writing. tuition is per semester. but the OHSC is the whole duration of the course

revsky · June 2015

@kymme alright. Thanks a lot.good luck sa study.

kymme · June 2015

@revsky thanks. start ka na apply

revsky · June 2015

@kymme thanks a lot mam. magkano po yung health insurance at anong magandang insurance company?

kymme · June 2015

@revsky $730 ung OHSC ko. idk what insurance company. haha. kasi sabay sa tuition ko binyad direct sa school
