Am I correct in thinking I would be able to as although I am already a Nurse this would register me as a Mental health Nurse? Also would this give access to tuition/maintenance loans and nhs bursary? Thank

Thank you.

As long as you aren't registered already in the field you are applying for you'll be able to apply for Mental Health Nursing. The full time 23/24 applications are now live and you can do this via your account.

Thanks, Jason

So to clarify. I am an adult nurse already but can get funding to do mental health nursing? Thanks

Hi there, you would need to submit an application for funding indicating this for the team to review. Thanks, Karen

Does that mean you’re unsure whether it would be possible? That’s what I want to find out otherwise no point applying, it’s confusing
