ali Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 You could try contacting Joondalup health campus (it'll cut down on travel and finances if you're staying up there) Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stone28 Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Can anybody clarify something for me? I qualified as a nurse in 2002 then as a midwife in 2007 I have worked in both occupations. For the past 15 months I have been working as a midwife. However I wish to work as a nurse and midwife in Australia. I am applying to New South Wales board for re enrollment - had registration there in 2004-5 then for a modified skills assessment. However do I get my skills assessed as a nurse or a midwife? Then say if I went down the midwife route would I have to get the visa through being a midwife. If I did this as the visa is a 175 can I still be employed as both? Thank you Rebecca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debbie.rn Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 hi stone 28 welcome to the forum as to your question if you go on a 175 as a midwife you could work as a builder if you want..this visa once granted has no restrictions which is why it is classed as the 'gold' visa...as long as you are registered by your nursing board as a nurse and/or midwife you could work at whichever you want. good luck to all the previous and current SHU students...see you on the other side!!!!!! **** got job offer!!! looks like i will be working for Ramsey Health, anyone any info on them??? debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gibbboe Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 :wideeyed:Hello All, I feel like I know some of you quite well from reading the threads ! I am a 3rd yr mental health student nurse, due to finish April 09. I have decided that as there are so few jobs to go to Oz . First choice Sydney, as I spent 6 months there (back in the day) or Melbourne where my best mate emigrated to. Is there anyone that can answer a nursing question? One of the nursing boards in NSW emailed me back to say I wasnt suitable for new graduate programme because will have completed a mental health course, but stated she would be happy to talk further about employment opportunities with the health board. Has anyone got sponsership from ahospital as a newly qualified without having any experience? Many thanks, E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gibbboe Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Thanks Anette, I feel more confident now that you've mentioned you were employed without experience. I have contacted South Eastern Sydney Illawarra Health and they replied saying not not participating in new grad scheme at moment, Sydney South West Area Mental Health Service stated RMN not suitable for their new grad course but the recruiter asked me to contact them when they get back from their hols in a few weeks. Going off topic for a moment, stuff in press about possiblity of massive increase in fuel surcharges on uk to Australia route. they saying could end up costing as much as flight + one airline is charging $1000 (Aussie dollars) fuel surcharge from !st July 2008! Airline fuel surcharges reach $1000 - News - Travel - smh.com.au Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moomin Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Hi Sue, just wondering if you can help as I noticed you are going over on a 457 and said you are working towards PR. I have been offered sponsorship on a 457 and hope to go to Perth, I'm a Mental Health Nurse. My worry is that the sponsors are saying I can apply for PR as soon as I get there, however when I have had a look at the DIAC website I can't see what visa I would then apply for. I have been told to apply for a 175 I would need to leave oz when it was granted but no one is saying what onshore visa for permanent residency I can apply for, what are you planning on doing??? help most wanted Kate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moomin Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Cheers Debbie & Mal, I had a feeling I was gonna have to apply for the employer sponsored was just trying to avoid having to do that just in case I hate it. Doesn't help that I've got a friend there that tells me she wouldn't work in that hospital for a million$$$. But beggars can't be as they say so i best get on with it and hope to be there in March. thanks again Kate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debbie.rn Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 hi moomin if that hospital has a bad rep why dont you try for a different one? i am sure there are plenty out there Ramsey health care are recruiting at the moment and are offering PR from the UK so no need for the 457 also do you have enough points for the 175 (120pts) or 176 (110pts) if you dont want to be tied to an employer...for my money 2 yrs is not so long and the security of having PR is great, plus this way i dont have to wait forever for the independant good luck debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
