Bridging Program in Australia

Hi. I am new here. I don't know exactly where to go. I am a registered nurse here in the Philippines and I am interested in studying in Australia for a bridging course that will help me become a registered nurse there. I need some help on looking for a good school that offers a bridging course.

My aunt told me that a friend of her friend just went to AU to take up a test and in 6 months she's there for a bridging program. and I have this friend who has a friend who became a registered nurse in AU in 6 months time too. This agency is offering me to study for a certificate III aged care with occupational English test for 46 weeks in Einstein College but it costs too much. So now, I am trying to look for a school wherein I can apply by myself and hopefully get in. I am hoping I could leave for AU this June 2011. I am a bit lost on what to do. Can you help me, please? Any suggestions? ? Please help me. Thank you very much. :clown:

(Sydney area would be better since my parents are more familiar and in favor of that place... though other cities/areas will be great too)

    What is your concern regarding immunizations?

    That immunizations be completed before clinical placement is primarily for the safety of all persons in the hospital... be it the student, patients or co-workers.

    In most cases, these vaccinations were already a requirement even during clinical placements as student-nurses... even as pre-employment requirement. Some hospitals also offer boosters as part of benefits.

    As such, it becomes as matter of getting copies (photocopies) of those immunization records and/or certifications.

    Thank you Cucci! My concern was when to complete the immunization after testing. You have answered my concern. I just had my serology and some immunization done. Once again, thank you!

    Hi Everyone,

    I have been inquiring to schools lately but all of them dont have any available intakes to offer this 2018. Any suggestions on school that still offers intake this year? Also, I have passed my docs to AHPRA and still waiting for their endorsement, upon inquiry they advise me that they have received it on March 5, but on March 20 they have emailed me again, acknowledging that they have received may docs. Does it really take this long?

    Thanks a bunch!

    This would depend on which school you would be enrolling in. Most of the discussion in this part of the forum is on the bridging program.
