OSCE REVISION for NMC REGISTRATION

Published

I am Wency, a registered nurse in the Philippines. I recently passed the IELTS (8.5, 7,7,7) and the NMC part 1 competency test which is the CBT. Now, I am preparing for the final test which is the OSCE. I am currently in the United Kindom particularly in Lincolnshire, and I would like to ask you guys if you know a training agency in the UK that provides training or preparatory course for OSCE because I am not confident to take it yet for some reasons that the Uk healthcare system is different from the Philippines perhaps they have different approach in providing care to the patients and etc.

Tuition fee for intensive revision for OSCE is not a problem as long as I can enroll for revision.

one of my points I failed the first time was withdrawing too fast- so definately! 10 seconds administration time, 10 seconds hold time, then swiftly out.

when you did your osce resit, did you do the same skills from your first attempt? or you were tested on another one? and with the IM, can we recap the needle?

Hi Wency, did you find a training provider in the end? If not try Brookes Recruitment in Birmingham. They provide OSCE training on site and their fees are pretty good too. Their trainer has an excellent pass rate. See Brookes Health Care. The website doesn't actually advertise their OSCE training so probably best to drop them an enquiry.

All the best x

I took the OSCE on April 5th and got a partial fail for running out of time on APIE Assessment phase (no other negative feedback), and did a partial resit yesterday and passed!! I am SO pleased! I will say, the first scenario was quite complex and my second scenario was simple/fast...

Hi guys,

I am sitting my OSCE next Tuesday (2nd May) Just looking for any advice regarding the care plan. I have read in the candidate handbook that people have previously failed because they didn't include self-care elements.

Also, in regards to BLS in Australia we follow DRSABCD, the hospital trust I am working with follows this also. However, in the UK resuscitation guidelines it is different - It states Safety, Response, Airway, BReathing, send for help, circulation. Again any advice would be great.

Like everyone, I really would ideally like to pass first time round.

Thank You,

Goodluck to everyone

cant remember actually. try to check out the forms in nile

Hello fissure,

I am going to take exam next week

If I need to give antihypertensive tablets in the implantation. Do i need to ask for any heart rate or blood pressure before giving it ?

In BLS do I need to loudly count the compressions. Is it a major mistake if we are not doing so? Because I get exhausted by counting all 30 loudly.

Plzzz anyone answer me...

Hi Maria,

Yes, you might need to. I have a different scenario and I didn't gave antihypertensives, but the issue there might be: you have 2 antihypertensives, would you give them both at the same time?

Yes, you need to count it. The assessors will require you to.

Good luck on your exam!

Hi Mdg,

Do not re-sheath.

Hi! I took my first exam last March and failed. I cried and worried so much about my sponsorship after. Plus the fact that I am working in a Trust where I was not getting any support. One thing I'm sure that failed me was my anxiety. I was too anxious the whole time. I had to do a full resit last week. I am so happy that I finally passed!! This time, I made sure I was relaxed and calm. So please guys.. on that day.. just be calm and have presence of mind. It will really help you. Believe that you can and you will have it. :)
