You can come to Australia independently, and look
for work, or arrange a job with an employer before you leave.
In Australia, to work as a nurse you need to be
in good health and have a certain level of education and experience.
To determine whether you can work in Australia as
a nurse, you will need to be assessed by either the Australian Nursing &
Midwifery Council (ANMC) or the nurse regulatory body in the State or Territory
in which you wish to work.
If you wish to work in a hospital or
other health care area, you will also need to pass a health examination which
includes a chest x-ray.
