Hi! emes05,

I would like to ask if the professional reference should contain the word registered nurse though my supervisor

you mean, you got your supervisor as your professional reference, and he/she already issued you a recommendation letter? if that is it, i think it would be fine with just the 'school nurse' title. the letter should be specific regarding your duties and responsibilities and your reference may also include helpful information about your character ("has been efficient with her duties and received satisfactory rating in the annual performance evaluation..")

hi! emes05

Thank you for your reply. I was emailed by ahpra with the lacking documents which includes professional reference and cpd. I asked my supervisor to send the professional reference directly to AHPRA but he only place that I'm a school nurse in a primary school with my duties and responsibilities not indicating that I am a registered nurse and the number of students in the school, do you think that is sufficient?

Hi I am quite confused about the Certificate of Good Standing to be sent to Ahpra. I would like to clarify if they will accept mailed paper based certificate as Ive read here that ahpra requires it to be sent BY the saudi council? My understanding is that i have to print out the pdf and have it signed and stamped in riyadh then send that to Ahpra. Am I getting this right? Will that be sufficient?

Hello! I having problem with my CGS too. Did you obtain yours? How did you do it and did AHPRA accepted it? Appreciate for your reply. THanks

hi kat221! personally, i think it wouldn't matter if the number of students in the school was not mentioned. that info can be shared in your certificate of employment from the school, issued by the HRD. if your supervisor's letter contained every detail that ahpra was asking for then it would suffice. also, working as a school nurse would automatically mean that you are registered, otherwise the school may not have employed you, so for me your supervisor not mentioning it would be alright. good luck!
