Hi all,
I am finding the whole process a bit stressful! I have been in contact with a not for profit organisation that liked my CV, but did not have the capacity to carry out the supervision requirements for the transitional programme. Even if they did, i think the fact I do not have a medicare provider number would be a problem, as they bulk bill everyone… I have started applying for government/public health jobs now. I'm not working at the moment, but have enough to live on for a while - so I was quite happy until today, when I got an email from AHPRA asking for a reply - by return of email - asking me for the current status of arranging employment and a supervision agreement with a board approved supervisor. My rational head tells me it is a routine email, and they want to make sure I'm not working without having told them; but part of me now feels stressed and under pressure!
I also looked at the psychology board supervisors - I may also contact them to set up a placement if i don't get any luck with jobs. How are things going with you Natalie?
