Great if you can lemme know what you think , if you feel it’s informative for you feel free to share with your friends i’m looking to create more content geared towards mental health nursing for students it’s been a very long overdue passion project of mine 😊

I dont remember as it was 10 yrs ago if i did it was brief my lectures were mainly on schizophrenia, substance misuse, bipolar, psychosis, depression, care planning and risk, mental health & physical health impact , meds,

learning disability nurses will get more training on ahhd, autism etc

I'm sharing a link to the document I took a screenshot of; perhaps it will be clearer with further explanations.

Here is the para document i was referring to as well that the pA’s will be following once under gmc www.gmc-uk.org/-/media/docu...

BSc nursing training is 3 years
In my training as a mental health nurse it included 12 weeks of general nursing to gain experience and insight in physical health. Mine were palliative care & cardiology. The rest of placements were camhs, acute ward, elderly,crisis, eating disorders, drugs & alcohol

ADHD is a 1B condition for PAs in the UK. PAs must understand its types (inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, combined), recognise symptoms, and document findings. While they contribute to diagnosis, final confirmation often requires specialist input from a psychiatrist or paediatrician and refferal

So the ones that can diagnose ADHD would potentially be a Psychiatrist, GP, neurologist , paediatrician .

I couldn’t say how many hours exactly but depending on work places there maybe training opportunities once on the job but i do recall having lectures & seeing people with ADHD on placement

Medication administration , care plans & risk assessment , referrals mental state examination many more

As for ADHD I couldn’t tell you how many hours in my mental health training or PA training but over the years I have looked after patients with ADHD that are experiencing psychosis & self harm.

Yes

In the UK the nursing training is years at Bsc or 2 years MSc

For all 4 fields Mental health , learning disability ,children & adult

Nurse Training is usually 50% uni. Theory & 50% placement so in mental health would cover meds, conditions , psychiatric placements in community or hospital

This is based on what is on the matrix 1a,1b 2a, 2b

However there PARA document PA’s will be following

That’s interesting, thanks for sharing! It’s great Germany is proactive about climate change . Hot summers and high waters must be tough for healthcare. I imagine they’re training you to be well-rounded to insights on impact, but I get that exams will likely focus more on pharmacology—so I feel you!

Wow, that’s interesting! I’m a UK nurse, and climate change training wasn’t part of my curriculum. In Zambia, it’s a huge issue—it’s so hot that people likely faint and face heat-related problems , power cuts. May I ask which country you’re training in? Is it a big issue there?

Congratulations future nurse
