Hello, thank you for the video. Please can you give more information about salary p/hour for diploma in nursing and bachelor

[@brainybroccoli4499]

Actually, more like $38.75/hr for the RNs. I've based it on a 38 hour week ($38.75 x 38 =$1,472.50 a week before tax) and multiplied $1,472.50 by 52 weeks/(1 year) = $76,570 p.a. gross (ie: before tax)

[@Faze_3Replays]

Hi Yanna, thank you for you videos they are so helpful! Just to clarify in the bachelor of nursing how often do you do OSCEs?

[@yana.miller]

Hi! There are no OSCAs in bachelor. It's more practical tasks in labs throughout your semester. So you basically respond practically to the scenarios in labs and then complete a written part at home to submit in 48 hours. This is how it was at USC. Each uni I assume is different.

It is easier a bit, but the load is still high.

I have friends who owork as AIN. After EN employers look for 1 experience which you gain through a grad program. So going direct RN and getting a AIN cert, is quicker. I myself have completed EN and found it to bland and not thorough, just touches the surface of Nursing.

Hi Yana,first time comment! I have concerning about cert 3 AIN course or diploma of nursing to start my career but I think I want to become RN in the end, while studying uni, I want to work in health industry, which course should I start? 1, cert3 (4month $400 costwith concession) then working while studying uni(3 years), or 2, diploma of nursing (18month, more than 10K with concession) then working while uni(2 years), I know it depends on what I want to achieve but diploma of nursing seems so expensive compared to cert3, and I cant borrow money from government because I am PR not citizen. Thank you xxx your video is helping us so much!

[@yana.miller]

That`s a good question! Because you said you want to become a RN in the end, I would recommend to start with Bachelor of Nursing degree right from the start. After completion of your first year of studies (including your first placement in aged care) you will be able to work as AIN or carer, while you are still continuing your degree. This way will save you extra semester (in case if you would go with EN diploma first) and also money. Also, PR can get VET FEE HELP or HECS, same as residents.

Hey Zeinab, (DISCLAIMER - I can only provide info based on my experience as a year 12 in Victoria, 2020) Around July-August, you’ll gain access to your VTAC account. When you add courses onto your preference list within your VTAC account, you can click onto your courses and view the atar requirements of the Universities. University websites can be daunting with their 70-80 atar entry scores. However, from memory the lowest atar scores Universities accepted for a Bachelor of Nursing were as low as 50-55. I know this doesn’t necessarily answer your question about other pathways. But as long as you believe in yourself, study to the best of your abilities & meet the bare minimum atar score + SEAS, you will definitely get an offer for nursing!! :)) - I got an offer & definitely not with a 70 atar!!

[@yana.miller]

Hi Stan! I had my high school completed overseas, so I`m not sure what subjects you guys go through at your year 11. But I guess I would recommend upon my experience with Diploma units, to pay more attention to your math, biology or science, and just anatomy in general. Knowing anatomy and physiology in nursing is very important and comes in hands when you educate your patients. And also to understand the medical history of their conditions. Although, most of it you will be studying during your Diploma course. It`s just when you have some sort of a background knowledge prior to that, it makes it more easier in class. Good luck :)

If depends what you want to do after. If you are planning on continuing to bachelor, then it is a perfect time now to pick a uni and start getting your enrollment process ready. If not, then get yourself familiarised with required documents on AHPRA website for your registration once your course is over. There are also opportunities for post grad programs which run at certain times of the year. Try to google them up. If you are planning on applying for EN positions, then put your resume together. As I remember TAFE can help you with that. Don`t forget to get your references from your facilitators or teachers. Usually facilitators is a better option cause they have observed you during your placements. Good luck :)

Hi there! No diploma is not compulsory if you want to become an RN in the end. Yes you can go do bachelor after the high school. But you will need to check the requirements with the uni regarding OP rank, electives etc.

Is it a good chance to do study online for bachelor's of nursing course I haven't done diploma of nursing

You don't need to do Diploma before Bachelor. You can start right from uni if you wish. See which uni offers bachelor online.

Hi, Are you recommend to study EN first? Why did you choose EN? Some people said it is a waste of time to do it because you need to spend more 6 months finishing the bachelor degree. thanks.

[@yana.miller]

In terms of time length, yes doing RN after completing EN makes it longer by 6 month. I personally went with EN first cause I was late to enroll to Uni through QTAC, their application dates were closed. But with TAFE I was able to do it directly at the campus of my area. Now I feel grateful that I have completed my EN first, because it has given me extra experience that I couldn`t get in my first year or even second year of uni. Plus I`m able to work as EN while doing my RN, which gives me more credits for future job opportunities.

What educational background is required to study diploma in nursing in Australia?? Am i eligible to study diploma in nursing though i haven't studied biology in my +2level???? Please give proper information 🙏

[@yana.miller]

I don't think biology would be a problem, but just give them a call to be sure. Mainly they need year 12 here in Australia, and if you had your school overseas, then a prove of English test and then BKSB (literacy and numeracy tests). This is mandatory. If you follow this link and click on "important information", you'll be able to fine everything there: tafeqld.edu.au/courses/17738/diploma-of-nursing I can't speak for all education providers as I only had experience with Tafe.

Thapa Kaji a lot of TAFEs have the prerequisites on there website it’s usually just finishing English with a study score of 30 or more in year 12. Sometimes you need maths but not a lot

Hello Yana. May I ask some something regarding the immigration if you know? I final goal is to get the Permanent Residency, and I don't don't know if I should study EN or RN. However, in my opinion, studying RN might make it easier to get a PR than doing EN if I study in regional areas like SA/TAS, and it seems like studying RN gives more possibility to get 190 campared to studying EN which most likely gives me 491, in terms of state sponsorship. Is my opinion correct or not? And do you know if holding EN certificate could also pass the skill/occupation assement as it does with a RN certificate, in terms of employer sponsorship or 189 skilled migrant? Thank you very much!

Hi there! I wish I could help you with this information, but unfortunately I know nothing about it. I have my citizenship here, so it`s easy for me. Try to research online on gov websites or consult with migration agent. Good luck!

Diploma of nursing at Canberra institute of technology is a good choice ?

[@yana.miller]

I think its the same as everywhere else. They use the same code for the course as TAFE does, which is HLT54115. So I assume that the program is same as well.

If this is what you're looking for to enroll to. Just go online and compare the prices, see what requirements they have documentation wise, English tests and stuff specifically for international students. Cause for citizens it's different.

can i finished my diploma first then apply for bachelor degree? where is better for study nursing; sunshine coast or gold coast? can i work anywhere in queensland after finished bachelor in anywhere in qld? or should i take some test? thank you for sharing

[@yana.miller]

Hi Mery! 1. It depends who you wanna be: RN or EN. If RN, then take bachelor degree. And if EN, then choose Diploma. 2. It doesn't matter what area you go to study nursing. Just pick a uni you like and area close to your home. In the end of the day the course is the same everywhere. 3. Yes you can pretty much work in hospitals, GP clinics, aged cares, community centres etc. If English is not your first language, then you'll need to take an English test prior to your studies and then to get your registration. Well, after completing diploma (cause it's only 18 months) you might not need to take another English test, cause it's valid for 2 years.

Hey yana I’m an international student and I wanna study nursing. My ultimate goal is to be an RN but it requires higher marks in IELTS so if I do my diploma first for a year suppose can I directly jump to 2nd year in bachelor later? It would save my time so is it possible?

[@yana.miller]

Hi Riyana, as far as I know you need IELTS for diploma of enrolled nursing as well. It used to be just bksb test, but not any more. Maybe some other states in Australia do not require it for Tafe diploma, but in QLD they sure do.
