Guest gaynorsimpson Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Hi guys, Currently awaiting the OK for skilled independent 136 MODL. I have been qualified 16 years as RGN and 7 years as RN child. I also have my degree in community nursing(specialist healthcare practitioner) and was a children's diabetes specialist nurse for 2 1/2 years. I have been a diabetes nurse advisor in the pharmaceutical industry for the past year. I am starting to panic now that they may say I am too specialised. What does anyone else think? Will my skills and qualifications be recognised? You know what its like... Won't believe its going to happen until it does! Currently at stage waiting for policw checks, had medicals etc. Cheers! Gaynor. PS. I would be willing to work back on wards with either adults or children if needs be. I have heard that they are quite hot on diabetes in Oz.

Guest scots-in-oz! Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Hello! Just wanted to say welcome to PIO! I'm also a children's nurse, married, 2 kids aged 10 & 13, hoping to head to the Gold Coast sometime this year! 175 Visa application just sent last month online, my PC is back, but OH's still to get here! Meds TBA yet. I've not started to apply for jobs yet, but my plan is to email the hospitals direct as I've heard that this is the best way to go about it. I've only been qualified for just under 2 years, and I'm not sure about your speciality with regards to jobs in Oz, but hopefully someone might have an idea. Mags:wubclub: x Ps sorry about the brief reply, but i should really be in bed by now as I really want to watch Wanted Down Under at 9.10am in the morning!! lol! Will talk again in the future no doubt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
