To practice in Australia, you must register with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) through the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). This process involves verifying your qualifications, professional experience, and English language proficiency. Detailed information on the registration process can be found on the NMBA website.
Several visa options are available, including the Working Holiday Visa (subclass 417) for individuals aged 18-30, the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (subclass 482) for employer-sponsored positions, and the Skilled Independent Visa (subclass 189) for points-tested skilled workers. Each visa has specific eligibility criteria and application processes.
Generally, nursing salaries in Australia are higher than in the UK and Ireland, and the cost of living can vary depending on the region. Many nurses find that the increased salary compensates for any differences in living expenses.
While the core responsibilities are similar, there may be variations in protocols, healthcare systems, and workplace cultures. We provide comprehensive orientation you adapt smoothly to the Australian healthcare environment.
We assist with every step of your transition, including guidance on registration, visa processes, job placements, and settling into your new role and community.
