AHPRA and why UK Diploma Nurses shouldn't bother applying
roontastic replied to a topic in Careers and Vacancies
A friend of mine had a rural job offer in place pending registration...General trained with diploma and several years experience, was turned down due to the diploma. She has been informed that she must do the bridging visa. currently looking into the bridging course. I think they are 3 months. 1 of my colleagues has completed the bridging course in melbourne. -
Hi Lisa, We are currently on 457 visa. Cost depends on what type of school u send ur kids to and how old they are. We initially tried the local high school, they wanted about $15,000 per yr up front payment. We shopped around and found that the private schools (catholic) are actually cheaper, and we pay in monthly instalments. It does vary depending on age. For high school it's roughly $500 per month for high school and for the primary school we pay roughly $400 per term for primary. I would do research before hand. We are not catholic but were accepted, kids had to do an interview. The teaching is of a higher standard aswell. Hope this helps Paul

Apparently Brisbane is not so gd for nurses atm, not many jobs from what i've heard. NSW & WA are screaming out for nurses

Car is a must, we are rural and went 6 weeks without a car....thin it nearly killed the kids walking everywhere...public transport is poor and unreliable at best Now that the heat is coming we couldn't survive without the car...

It could be that the system is down for maintenance, sorry am not sure what to suggest... We are going on a 457
-

Medicals have been found and are awaiting assessing. So they have been sat on someones desk for the past 4 weeks. The email stated that they are processing from the 19th March... Funny then how, Mrs Rooney has had hers assessed and finalised.... Well at least its found... thanks for all the info guys :biggrin:
-
Thanks Pegibson, will email them to see what the script is. My wife has been emailing the CO, who said he has emailed the HOC to start an internal investigation, also stated he would seek advice from his team leader....so the wait and panic remains...
-
Thanks, I'll have a look see if I can find it

I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Both myself and wife are applying for 457 visa. Need medicals as we are both nurses. Medicals were completed on 23rd April, sent on 25th April and wifes were finalised on 26th. They were sent electronically by the Hospital. We both received separate letters stating same. We thought that my medicals could have been referred as I have an ongoing medical condition. On emailing case officer, we were informed he was on annual leave until 13th May. He has now returned and confirmed that my medicals Health Operation Centre claim they have not received. Has anyone experienced this with HOC? Thanks

We had the choice of anywhere in NSW. Picked Wagga Wagga, coz it ticked the majority of our boxes, it's out in the sticks and inbetween Sydney & Melbourne. I'm sure the time will fly in b4 ur wife and kids get there. With things like Skype it does help. Let us know how you get on

Would you work for minimum wage?
roontastic replied to LittleMissWildChild's topic in Careers and Vacancies
If it was me I'd go for the qualification, that at least opens doors for the future and will have more earning potential in the future. It could be the challenge that he needs to make the move feel more like home and have a settling effect. Eithe way gd luck Roon -
Hi Bassboy, I'm intrigued at the no medicals. We have just applied for the 457 and have to go for medicals....

We'll be heading to Wagga as soon as the Visa comes through...hopefully end of June start of July
