Occupational Health Fitness to Train self harm and eating disorder admission
I was offered a place on a dental nursing course and had to do my Occupational Health Fitness to Train questionnaire and it asked if i had a history of self harm of eating disorders and i said yes. However in the explanation section of this question i said 'I had an eating disorder at age 13 and self harmed from the ages of 14-17'. Im about to turn 19, can they revoke their course offer because of the self harm and Eating disorder?
I said yes to this question because in the terms and conditions they said they would have access to my medical records, so i couldnt exactly deny it.
I got an email after submitting the form that an appointment has been made for me to discuss my answers, what does this mean?
I dont do either of these things anymore and i have been clean from self harm for almost two years, im fully fit to practice.

relax. they are there to insure your safe to practice. they ae you allies. you will be fine if its resolved. they will probably want to keep in contact nurse training of every kind is stressful. they want you to remain as healthy as you can. hence its wise to be honest. you will get on the course you must look after your health. good luck on your training.

Hi there,
They will want to discuss it in a bit more detail with you, and determine if you need any adjustments to your course or if you require any assistance. I study adult nursing, and have worked alongside students who have had ED's and self-harmed in the past prior to beginning the course, and they just had a chat with the university about how best to support them
