  4. Securing a nursing job in Australia from India involves several crucial steps. Begin by obtaining a recognized nursing qualification from an accredited Indian institution. Next, demonstrate your proficiency in English by passing exams like IELTS or OET. Register with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) and secure a relevant work visa, such as a skilled migration visa. Your educational qualifications and work experience will need to be authenticated by the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC). You may also need to pass a skills assessment and potentially complete a bridging course to meet Australian standards. Staying updated with NMBA guidelines is critical to ensure you remain compliant with the latest registration requirements.

  5. The cost of breast surgery in Delhi is influenced by several factors, including the type of surgery and the healthcare facility selected. A standard lumpectomy or mastectomy typically ranges from INR 1,00,000 to INR 3,00,000. For patients requiring reconstructive surgery post-mastectomy, the cost can climb up to INR 5,00,000. Private hospitals, offering advanced medical technologies and experienced surgical teams, generally impose higher fees than public institutions. Additional expenses for pre-operative diagnostics, hospital stays, and post-operative care also contribute to the overall cost. Financial assistance through health insurance, government schemes, and non-profit organizations can significantly reduce these expenses, making treatment more affordable and accessible.
