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.
Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency AHPRA
I just got the decision letter of AHPRA through email a couple of days ago so I'm now looking for BP schools. anyone here who went/will be going to IHNA or Mercy Health? I'm really hoping to get into a program around September or October this year.
How long do applications usually take from the time you submit your documents to the time you're given an offer letter? If I understand it correctly, this is needed before once can lodge a visa application, right? And how did you pay for your school fees? I dont have an Australian bank account, and I cant use my credit card for the tuition fee.
Hope you can share your experiences. Thank you, as always!
for those who had their interview with IHNA would they tell you right away if you pass? just had my interview awhile ago and the interviewer didn't tell me if I passed.
What is your contact number? are you bound for october 2012 intake at ETEA? you said that the clinical placement will be in Sydney? is it true? pm me your digits, i am trying to call you,( number you dialed is incorrect.. if you could pm me your correct digits...thanks....
I already passed the interview with ETEA. So I'm just waiting for the offer letter. Submitted my application to IHNA last week and they scheduled me for interview today. The interview was not easy nor hard. They asked me what management do we usually do for severe head injury, what's GCS, dementia and what do I do in resolving conflict among colleagues.
IHNA usually tells the result right away but perhaps their intakes aren't finalized yet that's why they can't get back to you right away.
thanks cummulus! they called me again awhile ago and told me that I passed the interview :w00t: im just waiting for their email now but Im still not sure regarding their accreditation status.
