These grades are ridiculous - they don't reward talented, innovative or young people. 10 years is awfully long. No wonder there are so few inspirational nurses in Government sector. Sad news for the Nursing Profession.
Government Nurses earn more on average then the private sector nurses but give poor service then the Private sector. The same nurse who is lethargic in government will give good service when doing hours in Private hospitals.
Hello Doctor, I want to know three things (I) the requirement to open a lancet franchise or, (2) a family planning franchise (3) how much will it cost to build a private school for a four-year course to be a professional nurse, please.
Thank you for watching it. My next video planned is on dental salaries. You are welcome to suggest topics as well and I will try my best to produce them.
I will look into. It is a bit difficult to get the exact figures. Sometimes though what you think you are getting is taxed heavily or the cost of living maybe higher etc.
@@InterncomservVlog as a newly qualified registered nurse my starting salary is £28000 annually which is equivalent to R616000, depending on the currency exchange rate
Hi doc in your next video may you please dwell more on the tax. How does it work, How is it calculated? Are benefits such as night allowance, housing allowance etc taxed as well or only the basic salary?
Hi Miss King. When I started @ nursing school it was 8 years ago. Minimum requirements were : English 50% Maths 50% and life sciences 50%. Requirements change with time. And they differ from institution to institution. I did bachelor of Nursing. The above modules were compulsory in my institution at that time. Check with the nursing colleges like Lilitha if what are their requirements.
Hi, have you made the decision yet ? if not then yes it can be done you can get in nursing, you would have to have high marks if they are not Math/Sci (like, significantly beyond min requirements of institution) I advise a diploma instead of bachelor, beware there are subjects/modules that will be A NIGHTMARE! because you don't have the background from school for them and will require all the time you get devoted to them (eg. biophysics, biochem, microbio, ANATOMY!...) just to pass them (from my observations, usually people repeat those modules 2-3 times or even get expelled or held from graduations because of them), that's 3years study and is the professional nurse route mentioned in the video. Otherwise you can go the staff nurse route (a bit easier and is 2years study). Or even the assistant nurse route (much easier and is only 1year certificate study), hope that helps.
if a nurse quaified in 1999 and only did post basic in 2019 does she revert to level one specialty or is RPL considered if she was working in specialized depts from 1999
Hi Bellinda. I`d like to pursue a nursing career overseas. Can you please share how got started. Is there a way I can contact you via email perhaps? I really advice, cause South African nurses are underpaid.

Hey doctor. At what position will a nurse be earning more than a general practitioner? Because I've heard of nurses who are earning way more than doctors
If one is to do a comparative that is for example years of experience then a doctor will always earn more. But if you are comparing responsibility then a nursing area manager in the general stream and above or a specialty nurse operational manager or above ( more than 11 years experience ) will earn more than an intern and medical officer or GP grade1 ( with less than 5 years experience). But one will not see the difference because doctors do commuted overtime whilst the nurses do not.Hence the doctors salary will appear to be more.
You will have to complete a qualification in nursing education and be registered with SANC as a nurse educator and nurse assessor. If you are an educator in the specialty field you will also have to have completed a post-graduation in the specific specialty. Master's or Ph.D. degree will be an added benefit.
I would suggest you speak to your supervisor at the institute and HR development department and get yourself registered for the bridging programme. There is a selection process. The progranme is 2 years , recently my nursing collegues advised doing a BCur as an alternative which is 3 years might be a better option I believe, but speak to your HRD for more information.
Hello, I am a fifth year medical student. Not a South African but I want to practice in your country when I graduate. What are the processes for this? Thank you in advance
I would suggest you first complete your internship in your country. If the internship programme is 1 year I would suggest you complete an additional 2 years post-internship before you make attempts to get a position here in South Africa. You will have to first get your qualification verified and then apply to the foreign workforce department and then write a board exam. It is a bit complex but I will do a video in the near future to outline the steps.
a general nurse is a registered nurse, or am I missing something, you already have the maroon plate right? then you just go and add the 'bars' you want onto it, 1 to 1½years per bar, at ukzn you can get the 3 standard ones (community, midwifery & psychiatry) for a 3year digree and it's a bachelor's
Thank you for the pertinent question. According to South African Nursing Council policy document one requires IELTS if one has studied in a foreign language. If you are from a foreign country and studied in English then you wouldn't be needing IETLS.
@@InterncomservVlog Thank you for the response. What do you call them there so that I can do more research. I am potentially looking to relocate to SA from the US and would like to make sure my role here is comparable there.
They are called nurse practitioner or PHC nurse. You can either work independently and bill patients directly or work at a pharmacy for example and get a salary.
Research the term " reference price list for registered nurse in private practice" to get an idea of how much the rate is that the medical pay independent nurse practitioners. Good Luck. P.S. You can email me if you need any other information. Admin@interncomservvlog.co.za
Good day Doc please make a video of what qualifications would one need to move from RN to other areas (to positions) im more interested in going in to CEO/management area. Thank you
Thank you for the topic suggestion. I definitely will look into it, as that is what the country needs. Having the right qualifications and mindset will improve the leadership, management and outcomes in Health
Hi, Doc. Very informative video and very easy to understand. Thank you for this video.
Glad it was helpful!
i guess it's quite randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to watch new series online ?
@Marshall Zane i would suggest FlixZone. Just google for it :)

Hello Doctor, I want to know three things (I) the requirement to open a lancet franchise or, (2) a family planning franchise (3) how much will it cost to build a private school for a four-year course to be a professional nurse, please.
Could you make more videos for how foreign nurses can work in SA?
I will look into. Thank you for the topic suggestion.
Yes I’m in USA and would love to relocate!!!!!!
Thank you Dr. Can't wait for the next video
Thank you for watching it. My next video planned is on dental salaries. You are welcome to suggest topics as well and I will try my best to produce them.
I think we should compare overseas salaries with local to determine why so many of our nurses run away
I will look into. It is a bit difficult to get the exact figures. Sometimes though what you think you are getting is taxed heavily or the cost of living maybe higher etc.
I agree I left South Africa to pursue nursing in the uk
Looking at the salaries I presented, how much more do nurses in the UK earn. What is the average salary there?

How can one become a nurse lecturer in South Africa ??
You will have to complete a qualification in nursing education and be registered with SANC as a nurse educator and nurse assessor. If you are an educator in the specialty field you will also have to have completed a post-graduation in the specific specialty. Master's or Ph.D. degree will be an added benefit.
I wanted to know if you are a enrolled nurse how do you become a registered nurse and how long do you become a registered nurse at an institution?
I would suggest you speak to your supervisor at the institute and HR development department and get yourself registered for the bridging programme. There is a selection process. The progranme is 2 years , recently my nursing collegues advised doing a BCur as an alternative which is 3 years might be a better option I believe, but speak to your HRD for more information.

Hey doc
What avenue s are available for one to bridge from a general nurse to a professional nurse?
a general nurse is a registered nurse, or am I missing something, you already have the maroon plate right? then you just go and add the 'bars' you want onto it, 1 to 1½years per bar, at ukzn you can get the 3 standard ones (community, midwifery & psychiatry) for a 3year digree and it's a bachelor's
Hey doc can u pls do a vlog for phsiotherapy as I am studying it
It will be out soon....
ielts is mandatory or not to work there?
Thank you for the pertinent question. According to South African Nursing Council policy document one requires IELTS if one has studied in a foreign language. If you are from a foreign country and studied in English then you wouldn't be needing IETLS.
Are there Nurse Practitioners in South Africa like in the US?
Yes. They work independently usually after they have completed a primary health qualification(PHC)
@@InterncomservVlog Thank you for the response. What do you call them there so that I can do more research. I am potentially looking to relocate to SA from the US and would like to make sure my role here is comparable there.
