Good day dear ❤ a general nurse is a professional nurse. The R171 program is a registered general nurse program. The general nurse will not be under supervision but supervise the other health care members. But you only get a maroon general nurse epaulets without the other 3 bars. You can go and study further for each bar.
Very informative video I honestly didn't know nurses have to study so much its always doctors that get recognition but nurses do a lot I have even more respect now.if nurses have thier masters and decide they want to be a doctor can they just add on to that or will they have to start from scratch?
Thank you so much. Definitely one of my missions to put more light on how amazing nurses are and how we also have to work hard. If you want to be a doctor, they are universities (e.g. Wits) that provide a "bridging course" known as GEMP where you can enter 3rd year medicine instead of starting from scratch. But it's highly competitive though
@@silibazisomupereki Thank you for your reply, I'm from durban Living in the uk, and I see alot of south Africans get jobs so easy here in the UK obviously cause in south africa nurses are exposed to gun wounds and all other trauma where is here it's mainly stabbings and I don't know anything about nursing but I here nurses from south africa say the qualifications in south africa are very good thats why it also help getting jobs abroad I'm proud of you sister 🙌🏾
@@urbankhumalo8617 Oh you from UK, my bad...so nice to see that my videos reach that far. And yes it's true, we are exposed to more things than more developed countries and are therefore in high demand elsewhere. It's unfortunate though. Very talented people leaving their home countries from bigger salaries because unfortunately we are not paid much for the amount of work we put in
@@silibazisomupereki I am South african born and raised in Durban I just moved to the Uk for better opportunities as I was struggling in south africa 🇿🇦 but its good you have this channel to educate myself and other youngster who want to be in this field.
Some of the information is a bit misleading especially when you say a staff nurse is a general nurse which isnt the case and mind you we don't know what Epps the new 3 year diploma holders will get but it may not be the white Epps as you say, it could be the maroon Epps with just the general nursing badge as that's what they essentially are coz they studied general nursing only and they are in between a staff nurse and RN hence they're called Registered Staff nurses. They also have a wider scope of practice. I was honestly a bit confused.
I do apologize for the confusion. Staff nurses study for 3 years and wear white epaulets. The new nursing diploma at a college is also 3 years but it is still unclear what epaulets they will have. They will be called General nurses Thank you for the correction😊
Hi Silibaziso Staff Nurses train for 2 years and the New General Nurses will train for 3 years. They are Registered Nurses with maroon epaulettes and they are more than eligible to run a Nursing Unit.
@@silibazisomupereki Thanks for your response. Let me rephrase my question, What nursing qualification do those nurses without strips on there shoulders hold?. I thought that they only possess a higher certificate in nursing (Auxiliary Nursing). Please enlighten me!!!
Hi im in grade 12 i don't have life science nor physical science but i wanna do nuring but after matric im planning to re write and add life science, is there any university or college that take you after adding the subject that you didn't do earlier on but added after matric?
Hie there. The most important subject would be biology/life sciences. You can do either Maths Lit or Pure Maths (unis accept both). Physics isn't necessary but it will help you with first year nursing physics and chemistry (however you will still be able to pass it even if you don't do physics in high school. It will just require a little bit more effort).
Hi can I pls ask so if u do a higher certificate in nursing , can u further ur studies and since u studied at a college does it mean u continue there . Or u can get enough marks to go to university??
A General Nurse and a Registered Nurse is the same thing. Think of it as Registered General Nurse. After doing the 3 year diploma you can do 1 year PostGrad Midwifery and then you can study your speciality after that. The R171 and R174 are really not different.
@@simphindala6379 is it compulsory for nurses who completed diploma in Nursing to do the Advanced Midwifery course before going into a speciality for example primary health care.
A general nurse is a registered nurse, the R171 programme is general nursing, so you will get only the maroon general bar. 🙌 you can do 1 year of advance midwifery after your com serve year. Will be the same as the new R174 programm e, you nqf level will be 7
You can use it to bridge into the medicine program I'm sure. But your marks have to be really high and they most probably would still need your matric marks
@@silibazisomupereki so which one is better paying private or public sector (I love money I’m really not looking forward earning less than 25 thousand 😂😂) I’m willing to study for 4/5 years
These ranks are a problem. The nurses first of all and most importantly thinking that they're just better humans than the patients. Secondly some of the higher ranking ones, think they're better than the doctors. This thinking of being better gets put into practice by the nurses not doing their jobs properly. And often intervening in doctors recommendations or orders. We have to acknowledge that this is a problem. People are dying because other clueless people get given a badge.
I partly agree and disagree with you I disagree with you because our ranks help us to function within our scope of practise. An auxiliary nurse can’t have the same authority and responsibilities as a registered nurse because our scopes differ. In addition, nurses are allowed to question doctors decision. They don’t act like doctors but you can advocate for your patients needs because nurses spend the most time with patients than doctors. Obviously this comes with the caviar that only few nurses (who are both knowledgable and experienced) can do this safely Agree: yes the ranks do make some nurses big headed and think they are better than others etc Moral of the story: each nurse needs to work within their own scope of practice

Hii there this is a very random question but does staff nurses also wear scrubs and what colour if they do? 😅❤
They can wear scrubs. The epaulets is the only difference

Hi Silibaziso, Can someone with Auxiliary Nursing find work and continue while studying?
It depends what else you will be studying
@@silibazisomupereki Thanks for your response. Let me rephrase my question, What nursing qualification do those nurses without strips on there shoulders hold?. I thought that they only possess a higher certificate in nursing (Auxiliary Nursing). Please enlighten me!!!
Nurses without epaulets are Enrolled Nursing Assistants (ENAs) and they study 1 year for Higher Certificate
@@silibazisomupereki In your initial response, you said that 'it depends on what else you will be studying'. What did you mean by this?
Message me on Instagram or FB then I can voice note
Hi im in grade 12 i don't have life science nor physical science but i wanna do nuring but after matric im planning to re write and add life science, is there any university or college that take you after adding the subject that you didn't do earlier on but added after matric?
Every university will take you as long as Marks are good. Good luck
As a grade 10 learner that recently chose my subjects. I just wanted to know what maths you need and if you really need physics?
Hie there. The most important subject would be biology/life sciences. You can do either Maths Lit or Pure Maths (unis accept both). Physics isn't necessary but it will help you with first year nursing physics and chemistry (however you will still be able to pass it even if you don't do physics in high school. It will just require a little bit more effort).
If I do advanced diploma in midwifery for 4 years at college will I get the yellow and navy blue bars ?
No. You would still need to do postgraduate diploma to get the yellow and navy bar
Quick one here. Can u actually do that one more year for management or education during your comserve
No. You can't specialize in management or education without experience

Hi do you advise doing a diploma or degree in nursing?

Please check out this video I did as a comparison
How do I move from general nurse to registered nurse? Which qualifications or courses to study?
Unfortunately the bridging course was faced out. You will have to do the bachelor of nursing (four year degree) from scratch
A General Nurse and a Registered Nurse is the same thing. Think of it as Registered General Nurse. After doing the 3 year diploma you can do 1 year PostGrad Midwifery and then you can study your speciality after that. The R171 and R174 are really not different.

Can you become a professional nurse if you went college?
Yes. Colleges train proffesional nurses. That's were it all started actually
Can you become a doctor with the diploma qualification?
You can use it to bridge into the medicine program I'm sure. But your marks have to be really high and they most probably would still need your matric marks
Is ENA same as CNA ?
Pretty much. CNA is an American thing
what is the difference between B Nursing Science and B Nursing ? And which one is a little better ?
They are the same thing. Universities just name them differently
Quick question are nurses allowed to have tattoos
You are, as long as it's covered and can't be seen
@@silibazisomupereki thank you soo much sweery ❤️, are there any nurses that earn less than 20 thousand per month
Yes. Tax will definitely take a big cut out of your pay. You pay will also depend on speciality and whether you working in private or public setting
@@silibazisomupereki so which one is better paying private or public sector (I love money I’m really not looking forward earning less than 25 thousand 😂😂) I’m willing to study for 4/5 years
Private would have better pay
Thank I like it
