judyq Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi, i am a registered nurse and am about to commence applying for a visa with my partner and kids.I have an australian passport as i worked in sydney in the nineties. my o. h is currently the bread winner as our youngest is little but i would like to return to practice in the next few years and wondered if anyone has any info? My registration has been lapsed for seven years. Made a few enquiries here but as usual they did not make it easy...expensive and not particularly easy to get on. Time wise would love to do it in oz, any info greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest30038 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I'm the bearer of bad news I'm afraid. In NSW it will cost you $10000 and you'll have to work 150 hrs for no pay: Return to Nursing? Not at $10,000! | Nurse Uncut Australia The federal incentive for bringing nurses back into the workforce is having it's funds re-directed into other health areas and no new applications will be accepted after the 11th of May.
