New grad Filipino nurse wanting to work in Australia/New Zealand Part 2

Published

Due to recent changes regarding applications for International nurses to Australia and the combining of the nursing boards to one central nursing board in Australia AHPRA I have started a new thread for people to discuss the new process on working in Australia.

Currently New Zealand is not accepting new applicants from International trained nurses except those that meet the Trans Tasman Mutual Recognition Agreement {TTMR} this will be updated once the New Zealand nursing board reopen their books to International nurses.

Part 1 thread New grad Filipino nurse wanting to work in Australia/New Zealand - Nursing for Nurses

hi guys! do you happen to know where i could see the schools accredited by AHPRA and their validity? thanks in advance! :)

The official list is here:

Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia - Approved Programs of Study

In the table use the column under the headin "Registered Nurse"

Then....

For accredited 12 month conversion programs double click on "General Registration" and look for the schools annotated "(RN conversion)".

For accrdited 12 week bridging programs double click "Internationally qualified"

Keep in mind this information is not strictly accurate even though it is from the official website. You have to contact the schools concerned to check that they are actually operating and offering the said program. For example, in the case of WA, 3 out of the 4 listed accredited schools offering bridging porgams, are in fact currently not offering bridging programs, and the one that is operating has been renamed from HCHN to IHNA.

Does anyone have any idea about non award course???

do we really have to take all the vaccines for us to do the BP? like, MMR, DTap, Influenza, Meningococcal, Varicella, HepA?

my Pedia gave me a quote of the total expense for the vaccination and it is roughly reaching to 10,000php. :confused:
