I don't think she coudl get any treatment whatsoever in the public sector. And my friend is a nurse so knows her way about the system better than most.

Re: Couple needing career advice for moving to Australia
Hiya,
We live in the UK and are both UK citizens in our twenties. My husband and I are wanting to move to Australia in the next couple of years and wondered if someone could give us some advice regarding both our careers?
I am a registered mental health nurse and from my understanding from other posts it is fairly easy to get a visa for Australia being a nurse as it is a trade that Australia wants?
My husband has a media and film degree from university and is looking at doing his teacher training for a year in September. People have told us that Australia do not accept UK teaching qualifications and that he shall have to retrain in Australia. Also, other posts have stated teaching jobs are incredibly hard to come by in Australia and that many of the posts for job vacancies are 'fake' as they just continue with the current postholder and extend their temporary contract.
Please could someone give us some advice as to whether he should do his teacher training in the UK or not bother?
Thanks,
Anna

Check out Justice Health - Forensic Mental Health Network in Sydney. They are always recruiting. Prison hospital of course if you're up for that sort of role.
Loads of sponsorship opportunities.
