Will DSA affect me after i graduate?

Original post by ZL04

If I am on medication and I am stable around the time of me applying for a job as nurse, do you think they will pass me as fit to practise?

I think you know the answer to this by saying you're stable. They cannot discriminate against you.

I’m asking because I was interested in applying to be a Metropolitan police Constable and one of their occupation health officers told me that even if I’m stable and I’m not on medication they wouldn’t consider me because of my depression diagnosis and past attempts.
If I knew the answer u wouldn’t be asking. I never said I was stable at the moment , I said if.

Bit confused here considering earlier on you’ve been asking everyone about mental health nursing roles? Not the police force? And this post is in the nursing forum.

I’m not sure if you can read no offence I said I WAS interested. As in was previously interested in the police but now interested in doing nursing. Just want to know if things will be the same or if it’s different for nursing. I think I’m aware it’s the nursing form hence why I asked regarding NURSING.

Seems quite strange considering you have an offer from LSBU and Middlesex for MH nursing and you're now discussing police constable? I think it's worth having a good think of what career you're wanting to go down before you start an intense three year nursing course. But hey what do I know apparently I'm the one who cannot read.....

To your original question, having DSA will not affect you, DSA is there to support you with your learning and achievements. Occupational health are also there to support you and provide you with reasonable adjustments to prevent discrimination against you.

I want to apply for DSA, Ive been diagnosed with Depression,Anxiety,PTSD and BPD.
But Im scared it will be looked into when I get into employment as a nurse after graduation, will they refuse me a job if they knew i had received DSA for mental health conditions before?

Where would you think they will see this information?

U just joined today on the student room, you’re most likely someone who made a fake account because you didn’t want to say this hateful comment from your Main. Haha that’s so sad, I actually pity you.

You have to join sometime "ZL04" which is definitely identifiable isn't it? not anonymous at all? You joined six months ago, I joined today following searching for DSA as you cannot see past 2 comments without doing so. But yes, this certainly feels like a contradiction to the comment I made.

Your post you say? I think you'd find TSR in fact owns your post under the terms and conditions of when you made an account.

This is not how the world works, you're going to be in for heinous shocks working in the medical field if this is how you think you can manage spaces that you chose to engage with. Echo chambers are disastrously bad for humanity (and mental health), you're not the land lady "get owt my pub".
"if you dont like it scroll on"
"if you dont like it block me"

Ill bet these have been used in the last 24 hours. Let me have everything I want completely unchallenged or Ill use shaming tactics.

Yep, he medical field is an interesting choice.

You think you’re smart, but I’m the OP and I posted this , regardless tip for next time, if you can’t take heat little girl, don’t start a fire 😘

You call this a fire? More like a little fizzle of smoke from someone that doesn't like an answer.

Next time, if you do not want peoples advice then don't ask. Plenty of people have offered you advice regarding your multiple repeated questions and you've chosen to ignore them.

DSA will not affect you but your attitude and the way you treat people may affect you in the workplace, especially in a field like nursing where teamwork is crucial.

DSA will not impact you whatsoever, so do not let that deter you from pursuing your dreams. Your DSA application is made directly to Student Finance England and with your consent shared with your university to ensure the supportive measures are implemented to help you throughout the duration of your course.

Each student will be assessed independently by Occupational Health after enrolment to determine if they are fit to practice and have the appropriate support in place to minimise any adverse effects on the students health and on the setting they are allocated their placement within. Occupational Health is mostly about supporting you, so I would try not to worry and be as open and honest as you can to ensure the right support is provided to you.

If it’s any reassurance to you, this is my second degree I am also studying Mental Health Nursing in September at London South Bank University and I previously had a successful legal career with a Masters in Law. I have a diagnosis of ADHD and I have disclosed this in advance to the university and they have been nothing but supportive.

I hope that helps and I wish you all the best!

is there any need for this squabble. being a police officer would be more difficult. you may want to check with the police.
