I'm also hearing good things about the FEU-NRMF nurse training program. Give it a shot!

@dvsbec Thanks for the feedback. @nursemich Do a calculated risk assessment and weigh the pros and cons. I wish you success!

Lol I'm not putting people down or being pessimistic about things. I'm just being realistic. It's not about being a Filipino or not. Just because I'm not painting a rosy picture does not mean I'm not a true Filipino. All I'm saying is it's not going to be a walk in the park as some people say it would be. It's going to take a lot of work for inexperienced nurses. I never questioned the general competency of Filipino nurses.

I can't speak for all government hospitals but it's a strict requirement to have an IVT and BLS certification in our medical center. It is definitely important to have the right level of skill and the training is definitely valuable. The institution you are referring to should be reported to the ANSAP. That's really irresponsible on the part of the facilitators to just hand out cases. -tip- If possible, acquire your advanced training while already employed. I got a discount with my ACLS certification because the hospital gives discounts to its employees.

Hang in there man. I hope you finally land one this year!

As of now, I'm thinking of advancing my career as a nurse practitioner in Australia. I do hope it works out for me

For some strange reason, I cannot get into my old account. Anyway, Ceridywn isn't joking about the value of experience when it comes to employment. I had a batch mate who didn't have any experience and she went back home after her bridging course (Deakin). Anyway, my sister is already in Melbourne and I'm scheduled for the March 28 intake at VCHN. Is there anyone here attending that intake date?
