   normge replied to kyledouglas's topic in Registration

   I think this thread is about AHPRA not the NMC or any other agency. I think this thread is about UK RN's, not those from other countries I did not go to the University of Adelaide - what ever gave you that idea? AHPRA have simply said the Dip HE does...

   Once again, you are off topic. If you have a gripe with your government, then take it out on them - not on Overseas Nurses. WE are fighting for the reputation of UK Nurses, their professional standards and the Educational institutions that teach them...

   "ps there are not vast amounts of sponsorships around for overseas nurses. One look at any of adverts saying you must have work rights shows that." Depends where you are looking I suppose. I have a steady stream of between 150 and 200 positions adve...

   Australian PM, no less, is now aware of this situation and he has asked the Federal Minister of Health to investigate. So a Government Department alligned to the Health Department takes administrative action, and the MOH doesn't know what going on? D...

   I agree @Silverdragon102 but the conversation between myself and @Ceridwyn is specific to inter-country registration for UK and Australian nurses.

   One thing that could be challenged is the requirement for Australian Nurses to pas IELTS to become registered in the UK. What is the basis for that condition? If it because English is only the "defacto" and not the "official" language of Australia, t...

   What do YOU have to say about the situation regarding the IRON programme? BTW, I just spoke to a member of MARA who states that they have NOT been informed of any changes therefore, they cannot refuse to process visa applications! This is what I'm al...

   Well, obviously you know best. I'd better ring her up and tell her to send her Aussie RN home because NMC have wrongly allowed her registration ( according to another Aussie).

    "but stop giving Australian nursing profession the UK is superior crap, 200 years and it is time it was over. Stop the whingeing." You see, you just can't help but continue the pommie bashing. As an Australian (Yes, I AM an Aussie too), I find your ...

11. Assessment changes to overseas nursing applicants.

    normge replied to ceridwyn's topic in Australia

    " ...IE: the UK, mental health, disability nursing (that does not exist here)" How is it possible to compare something that exists, with something that doesn't? Does AHPRA decide who gets registered and who doesn't, on a fuzzy logic basis?

    Didn't realise it was all my fault @ceridwyn. BTW were you not removed from another forum because of you hysterical, anti UK rants? For those UK Nurses with a genuine concern over this issue, I have been advised that there is to be an article in the ...

    AHPRA have made a complete mess of their new Regs. Their own staff don't know what they are supposed to be doing; Candidate Case officers are leaving in droves. Aussie hospitals don't know what the new regs mean. It was supposed to be all about the D...
