samdom1 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Hi gang..I've just been looking into aged care facility management in the Brisbane area, a recruiter friend looked over my C.V and said I should look to apply as I have lots of key experience in this area...have you guys got any experiences of aged care facilities in OZ compared to UK? I'm also wondering if its seen as positive in terms of experience if I was to be successful in an aged care position and then decided to go back into hospital setting/ acute medicine...I know here in UK nursing homes are not seen positively in terms of experience when recruiting (a view I totally disagree with, personally I think if your a good care of the elderly nurse, you've got the fundamental skills to care for any group of patients) I'm keen to hear your thoughts?

alcrock Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I am a nurse and so is my partner. I am the main visa applicant as slightly younger, going for PR. Do we both need the skills assessment with ANMAC or just me? Does she just need to register with APHRA once visa granted, so she can work? Does she also need the IELTS? thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxlornaxx Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 If your not claiming for partner skills then she doesnt need anmac..just ahpra to practice..she can register with them anytime but must complete registration In person within a year.. . If she has a British passport and taught in english she wont need ielts for ahpra or visa I am a nurse and so is my partner. I am the main visa applicant as slightly younger, going for PR.D o we both need the skills assessment with ANMAC or just me?

Wouldn't have thought so if your the main applicant. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcrock Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I had a feeling she might not need to, she took the ielts and just missed the writing by 0.5 and has it booked again for 9th Nov. I understood ANMAC was just for migration,she is born and taught English with degrees and masters done at Leeds. So if she only needs APHRA it's best she waits until nearer the end of the visa process? So APHRA definitely don't need IELTS? When you say complete the registration in person within a year how? We would hope to apply for jobs this end to have jobs to go to when we arrive. So as the main applicant it's only my skills being assessed, she is my de facto partner, but can still apply and nurse with just APHRA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxlornaxx Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Yes can nurse with just ahpra..definately dont need ielts if you can prove 5 yrs of being taught in english..school or uni...you apply to ahpra and when they have asessed you..if successful..takes about 8 weeks..they then send you a letter of eligibility. .you then need to take this to the ahpra office in person and that completes registration for you to practice..

alcrock Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks Lorna, We thought we both needed ANMAC, so therefore needed ielts. Bet it's too late to cancel and get money back. So can we apply for jobs with queensland health before we fly or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alcrock Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 No refund as not cancelled for medical reasons but at least we didn't both apply to ANMAC throwing $850 down the drain. It is a minefield out there. Getting to grips with it a bit more. thanks for the advice and prompt replies. till the next hurdle...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Jilly Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I am a retired registered mental health nurse and I have worked in Australia for twenty years prior to retirement. I trained in the UK (Chester). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul0711 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 My wife has received her LOD from ANMAC today so very excited. She qualified in 2009 as a staff nurse and that is the date ANMAC have used as the start of her skilled occupation. But my wife has been working at the hospital since 2000 in various roles including her training period. Does anyone know if this longer period will count as work experience for DIBP as we need the points for the 189 visa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxlornaxx Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Its post qualification they count...as far as I believe anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul0711 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ok thanks Lorna - we were hoping that part of pre qualification may count with a letter from the hospital. But that letter is basically what we sent to ANMAC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxlornaxx Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 im not including any of my experience prior to qualifying..but least u included the letter n tried! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
