关于下周三护生游行 新的政策出来，原本维省护生毕业后就可以拿到的护士执照，现在必须考到雅思4个7或OET 4个B才可以注册。一点过渡期都不给。为维护我们的权力，我们必须站起来为自己说话。今天去开会，参加的中国人仅仅为12个，而印度 人，100多人！以前在yeeyi上就看到有人说在关键时刻，印度人绝比中国人要来得团结，还不屑呢。现在，不得不信了。以 前天天喊人家印度阿三的中国同胞们跑到哪里忙去了，现在是该现身的时候了。中国护生，不管你是学几年的，哪个学校的，都来参加游行 吧。这甚至不是关系你国家的，他人的，而是关系你切身的利益的，请大家团结起来，一起参加到游行的队伍中吧！这次总共会有来自中国， 印度，菲律宾，韩国等等国家，来自于不同学校，Deakin uni, ACU, Ballarate等等。目前印度人已经找到他们 印度人的联盟会之类的人，已经为我们做了很多事，找到很多新的途径，我们中国学生目前也在找华盟会的，希望能够得到他们的支持，希 望他们能够跟我们一起努力，一起去游行。而对于那些自以为可以考4个7的同学，也希望你们能够顺利考过。但当然，非常欢迎你们能参加 到我们的游行队伍中。 游行时间：下周三,13:00，11/8/2010 地点：parliament house. 注意，请穿uniform，或白衬衫黑裤子，黑鞋子。其他问题的可以联系我。 Vicky: 0433305284 QQ：38129062，也欢迎参加我们Deakin 的护生群，号码：69544687。谢谢。

On 1 July 2010 AHPRA advised that all health professionals whose tertiary qualifications in the relevant professional discipline were taught and assessed in English in Australia could be exempted from the English Language Skills Standard, i.e. 7.0. AHPRA (by 22 July, 2010) amended their website document to exclude only Nursing and Midwifery.  

  Printer friendly version International nursing students caught up in Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency bungle - Rally on 17 August

International nursing students caught up in the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) bungle will rally in Melbourne on Tuesday 17 August 2010. The rally will start at Treasury Gardens at 12 noon and march to AHPRA at 111 Bourke Street, Melbourne. Rally speakers will include Rev. Tim Costello, CEO World Vision, Lisa Fitzpatrick, Secretary Australian Nursing Federation (Victorian Branch) and affected students.
International Registered Nursing students predominantly from Deakin, Ballarat and Australian Catholic Universities, as well as Enrolled Nursing students from various tertiary and registered training organisation (RTO) facilities, are at the end of their tether after being advised by AHPRA that as part of the requirements for national registration, they must demonstrate proficiency in English by completing testing in IELTS/OET by scoring 7 out of 9 in each of the 4 components at the one sitting. This has catastrophic consequences for many students whose student visas expire on 30 August 2010 as there is not sufficient time to complete this process. AHPRA refuses to grant registration to these students although there was no requirement for students to gain a score of 7 when they commenced their university/tertiary degree / pre- registration education.   

On 1 July 2010 AHPRA advised that all health professionals whose tertiary qualifications in the relevant professional discipline were taught and assessed in English in Australia could be exempted from the English Language Skills Standard, i.e. 7.0. AHPRA (by 22 July, 2010) amended their website document to exclude only Nursing and Midwifery.  

On Thursday 5 August, over 120 of these affected students, who are ANF members, met with Lisa Fitzpatrick, Secretary Australian Nursing Federation (Victorian Branch) and ANF officers to discuss their concerns. A resolution was unanimously passed and is detailed below:

"This meeting of International Nursing Students on 5 August 2010 express concern regarding:

the lack of clarification regarding AHPRA IELTS/OET requirements and the delays that have occurred in being advised on this issue
the changes to the AHPRA website information, subsequent to 1 July 2010, wherein these overseas qualified nurses would have been exempt but are now not exempt from the English language requirements having undertaken their undergraduate qualification in Australia.
the fact that the Nursing and Midwifery professions are the only ones not exempt.
the fact that the steps put in place by AHPRA are not acceptable to the students affected and seek that AHPRA amend its decision.
the distress being experienced in relation to the future lack of ability of international nursing students to financially support themselves on a Visitor's Visa due to the condition of not being able to work.
Therefore, we request ANF (Vic Branch) to pursue the following:   

Seek all universities/tertiary institutions to assist with gaining a place in an IELTS/OET course and test and, further, that they all provide full funding for tuition and the undertaking of the examination.
Request AHPRA and NMBA to reverse their decision and allow these students to gain registration under the Nurses Board of Victoria conditions that were in place when they commenced their nursing courses here in Australia.
Seek a guarantee from AHPRA that these students' registration will be processed as a matter of urgency prior to the expiration of the Visitor's Visa - not the 90 days as currently advertised on the NMBA website.
Request an urgent review of the current AHPRA and NMBA English language standard on this matter.
give consideration to what legal channels are available to assist these students.
Furthermore, this meeting directs ANF (Vic Branch) to organise a rally to convene at Treasury Gardens (cnr Treasury Place and Spring Street) at 12.00.  Then marching to the AHPRA office, 111 Bourke Street, Melbourne on 17 August 2010 should this situation not be resolved."

This resolution is being communicated to both federal and state government ministers, the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA), the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) and other ANF state and territory branches.

In light of this resolution a rally is planned on Tuesday 17 August and will depart from the Treasury Gardens (cnr Treasury Place and  Spring St) at 12.00 midday to march to AHPRA (111 Bourke St, Melbourne 3000). International nursing students, students from various universities and educational institutions, families of affected students and other nurses will attend. The Melways map reference for the meeting point is 2G D5.

Speakers at this rally include Rev. Tim Costello, CEO World Vision, Lisa Fitzpatrick, Secretary Australian Nursing Federation (Victorian Branch) and affected students.

Members and general public are encouraged to attend and support these students

其他很多州很早就实行了，所以，一个国家的法律不会因为你呢100人就改的，很难。

护士，其他人可以混混。你必须考7啊，不然要整出人命的。

游行无益，省点时间学英语吧

我觉得政府的政策无可厚非，英语确实是护士必备的技能，4个7一点也不过分，因为很多其他专业的技术移民也开始像4个7靠拢了。你要说以前不说4个7，现在要求4个7，那有什么问题呢？以前新移民还能马上享受福利呢，现在你能去抗议政府不给福利吗？

如ls所说，省点时间学英语吧，4个7应该不难的。

人命关天的职业，语言和沟通上怎么能马虎！
上次一个亚洲护士（非英语母语的）帮我打针，和医生沟通的那叫一个费劲，来来回回确认了好几次。我坐在旁边真的吓死了。
我觉得4个7是最最最基本的要求了。这个和其他行业又不一样！

全家桶

我也觉得至少4个7最好听力口语8分，把药拿错了，针打错了要出人命的

Robbie2018

印度人还达不到4个7？

吉祥如意

so no difference between Dr and nurse, they all need ILETS 7.
they should put requirement for Dr. then fair enough.

谢谢高密公主加分。

楼上几位老师看贴不够仔细。

护士协会网上明确指出（加红颜色的部分）：除了nursing 和midwifery, all health professionals 的语言要求已经于7月22日被豁免了，虽然7月1日时是有语言要求 的。

吉祥如意

这个即使有豁免，好像跟你们没什么关系吧。。
