A question for student nurses with mental health

When applying - just wondering the following;


did they check your medical notes during the application procedure?

I have a mental health issue and wondered if my consultant will be asked to confirm whether I am stable or not.

I’ve heard about the occupational therapist and psychiatrist - will the consult with my current doctor about my status?

No. Had occupational health checks, which for some were very lax in their view. With a mix of informal and formal admissions- The psychiatrist was asked questions by Occ Health regarding myself. With a legal right to review what was said before returning to Occ health.

Oh I just realised I hadn’t explained myself very well.

I should have said I have a mental health issue which they would need to confirm is stable.

I’m wondering how they go about this and if they consult with my mental health doctor to confirm things.

Sorry to confuse you, I have edited my original post now
