hey, you dont need to do the Cert.III in aged care for you to work as a PCA in a nursing home...your bachelors degree is more than enough for you to work as a PCA...give me your details and i will give you the contact numbers of one of the nursing agencies in victoria.

i already finish the whole thread just now and decided to do the BP in VICTORIA. the prob is I dont have an IELTS and my certificate of GOOD STANDING. Which means I have to get my cert of good standing to PRC and let them send it directly to NBV.
@ CIOMAN
i will just ask if the PRC DAVAO ALREADY RELEASES THE BOARD CERTIFICATE FOR THOSE SURNAMES WHO STARTS WITH A LETTER PPPPPPPPPPPPPP down to Z (NOV.2008 NLE)
maybe we could do our application together and keep each other posted since its just the two of us who are not yet startng to pass their applications to NBV. KEEP me posted as to the status of your application..
I applied at QNC about last week of May. I got my acknowledgement about 2 weeks later. I was one of the few asked for a police clearance which I did promptly. I am a second courser with no experience whatsoever, mind you, I did try my best in applying but i dont have a backer in any hospitals here in cebu. But I'm not giving up, I know someday somehow all our hard work will not be wasted. Anyway, I emailed yesterday after finding out that I can actually ask a specific enquiry and I was told that they just forwarded my application last 22/10/09. This must be because there are a lot of applications this year.
I also just found out that I sent the wrong board certificate, I sent them the board certification...silly me! I am thinking on sending the board certificate on Monday. I am not sure if I should send in my statutory declaration of competence as I have no post grad experience.
Despite the great delay, I am still hoping and praying to get a positive assessment. I have been reviewing every now and then but more only on medsurg.
I have passed my IELTS last month and requested IDP to forward my result to CAS even though they have not asked for it yet as I've seen in their new application form, they need the IELTS results before the application progresses.
The change in July 2010 scares me a little as I have no experience and this could be one of the big requirement change they'll ask for.
Fellow nurses let's just hope for the best and work harder to attain our dreams...
Thank you all for the helpful information you have shared, it has certainly alleviated my anxiety knowing that there are others out there sharing the same dream and agonies as I have.
hi Im taking my ielts soon..It will be on Nov 7 this year.. kindly furnish me some review materials..It will be a great help....thanks!
it would be best to enroll formally in a review center so that you can practice well and feel what its like during the actual exam. 2 weeks of review would suffice.
usually the hardest part is writing pero if you're good at it na then you won't have a problem otherwise practice more. i think listening is the easiest, everything's given. you just have to concentrate and familiarize their accent. reading just needs skimmming. speaking needs answering directly what was asked pero i guess it depends on the examiner also. if he is chatty then chat along pero if he's somewhat formal/businesslike then be formal also.
Hi perzada, you need 15 posts to be able to send a PM.
As posted here by other members, you can send your documents even without IELTS, but you need IELTS to enrol for BP. I suggest you gather all your documents now and send it ASAP.
You have to photocopy and notarized all the documents(TOR,board cert,license,diploma,work statement etc).
Request a certificate of good standing from PRC, request them to send it directly to NBV.
goodmorning ryan and to everyone in here. i will soon transfer in vic still here in wa working as a PCA. can you pm me the nursing agencies you know in vic so that i can apply there when im in vic and to save money first prior to doing the bp... any nursing home you can refer where i can work?
