sorry, I didn't really quite understand the jist of that last post, but well, she won't leave her family in Glasgow! I've tried to get her to come and live with me, but she's a true scot and won't leave Bonny Scotland!
But anyway, my point was, do you have to be completely mentally healthy to be a nurse??? Was the fact that she admitted depression on her application form a reason for an unsuccessful application?
I know that there are various exceptions for certain professions, like when I was a teacher I had to disclose all my previous criminal convictions (not that I have any) to protect the children that you are teaching.
I just wondered if there was anything regarding mental health and nursing, in the UK at least.
