Visa Options For Healthcare Workers In Australia

For anyone looking to work in Australia in the healthcare system, you must be registered with the responsible medical board. This is in addition to the skills assessments required for visa purposes.

The main types of work visas available for healthcare workers include:

  • Working Holiday Visa (subclass 417)
  • Temporary Work (skilled) Visa (subclass 457)
  • Work and Holiday Visa (subclass 462)
  • Temporary work (short stay activity) Visa (subclass 400)
  • Employer Nomination Scheme (Subclass 186)
  • Regional sponsored migration scheme Visa (subclass 187)
  • Special Category Visa (subclass 444)

Visa Options for Doctors

There are three main pathways for working as a doctor in Australia:

  • Competent Authority.
  • Standard pathway
  • Specialist pathway.

Depending on your specialist field and how long you wish to practice in Australia, we will determine which doctor visa option in Australia is right for you.

Visa Options for Nurses

Your visa options for nursing depend on your specialisation and where you want to work as a nurse.

Once registered, there may need to be a bridging course to ensure you are at the  Australian nursing standards. 

There is also a skills assessment for visa application.

Visa Option For Aged Care Workers 

There are many opportunities for aged care worker visas in Australia. Aged care institutions can sponsor overseas nurses for the Temporary Skills Shortage 482 visa for occupations such as Nursing Support Worker, Personal Care Assistant, or Aged or Disabled Carer.

If such a temporary visa holder has been in Australia for 2 years or more, then you can look at sponsoring them for permanent residency under the Employer Nomination Scheme 186 visa.

If you are an aged care worker who wishes to live and work in Australia, contact our team of experts and book a discovery call.  With our understanding and experience of the health care industry, we can assist with your goals.
