    Re: New Zealand Registration in 8 weeks

    Hi Guys,

    I recently had my registration returned for not submitting a couple of the mandatory documents correctly eg the hpc certificate alone is NOT sufficient, you need to get a certificate of good standing from the HPC and some other bits regarding my uni course details. Ive sent it back again and im waiting to hear.

    I'd be happy to send a copy of one or two of my templates to anyone who'd like a copy as they are a bit tricky to complete and after a couple of phonecalls to the board i think and hope they are ok!

    Good luck!

    James

    Thanks fyzio for that, i find it hard to understand how you can prove your competence without the use of case studies? was there any suggestions made about how to get round this? thanks

    Re: New Zealand Registration in 8 weeks

    thats a bloody pain since i've just spent ages doing one for each msk,cvp and neuro. i thought they were a great way to encompass all of the components of each competency. also for showing your clinical reasoning and soap notes etc. a bit hard to get written consent when one of your patients is a quadraplegic!

    Oh, come on guys. Get a grip.

    Have you ever had any teaching in regards to Ethics???
    You are not permitted by law to disclose ANY information about patients. That's it.
    Written consent can be given by the patient or by a patient representative. Who's got POA? Who is next of kin?

    And as to other ways of proving competencies: you can always make up case scanarios, or get copies of your performance appraisals, reflective practice sheets, SWOT analysis', documentation audits, peer reviews, and whatever it is that you do .... The Physioboard's application guide document has even got reflection sheets in it, which you could use.
    Bottom of the page: The Physiotherapy Board of New Zealand > Registration - Overseas Qualified Physiotherapists

    You'll be fine. Don't get too uptight about it!!!
    Good luck,
    Fyzzio

    Re: New Zealand Registration in 8 weeks

    Hi guys i need a little bit of advice.

    After finally getting my reg through last week my next mission to obtain a visa. Does anyone have any tips on what visa to go for, how much and what time scales it may take to get?

    Cheers in advance

    Re: New Zealand Registration in 8 weeks

    Hi James,

    I am just staring out on my registration, I would REALLY appreciate having a look at one or two of your templates to get an idea of what I'm supposed to be doing, the whole thing gives me a headache! But worth it ultimately I'm sure!

    How did you get on? Were you successful?

    Thanks,

    Stacey
