Filipino LVN in US moving to AUSTRALIA

Published

Hi! Anybody who has the idea if an IELTS test needed in AUSTRALIA for a Fil-Am educated and trained as an LVN in the US. I believed, that LVN is equivalent as ENROLLED NURSE in OZ.

Hope to get some answers...tnx!

Yes, was just wondering if needed the IELTS since I finished the LVN program here in the US and been practicing for 10yrs at skilled nursing facility.

I wanted to prepare all the paperwork needed before sending to AHPRA.

How's the work load in OZ as an RN? Anyway, I finished my business degree in the Phils.

I sent an email to AHPRA but they want me to send my application for eval.

Your business degree is not relevant to your employment as an EN.
