@Jemma5000818 @Jenny5000818 @MHR5000818 There is a patient on my ward who uses one and it is effective for them

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Manasa5000818 @MHR5000818 This patient doesn't get/want nicotine patches

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

Curious to know what do you say to compulsory patient when they keep asking for a cigarette but can't have because not allowed out

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@sana5000818 @monica5000818 @MHR5000818 I guess it must differ from hospital to hospital we were told that only under special circumstances they would stay for long periods

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@monica5000818 @MHR5000818 Did they have a very short admission? We had a talk about borderline and they said they try to discharge within 48hours is it the same?

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Cassie5000818 @MHR5000818 I like this because it shows that there are many alternative to mess and also allows consumer to play a larger role in my opinion

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Aaliya5000818 @Bec5000818 @MHR5000818 My ward refers to them as patient as well

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@shail5000818 @Marcelle50008 @MHR5000818 I went on a community visit and I noticed same thing the consumer was in a home and they made sure that he had an activity for every day of the week which I thought was amazing

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Marcelle50008 @MHR5000818 I really really like this

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Jenny5000818 @MHR5000818 On placement they also told us that shouldhave set limit conversation lengths with consumer which I think would also be difficult

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

Curious to know if anyone has met any consumer consultants while on placement. There are none on mine but not really the right kind of ward for them

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Lozmeow5000818 @MHR5000818 I went to a clinical review today too! Very multi discipline but also there didn't seem to be any hierarchy and everyone seemed to have a lot of respect for each other

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@elise5000818 @em5000818 @MHR5000818 Not sure about vitals because my ward only does vitals once a week on saturday. How often does your ward do vitals

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@Jemma5000818 @MHR5000818 I haven't seen fish oil on my ward either but interesting to know also what age range are your patients? Maybe it is just elderly patients and they don't change it because it is what they are use to

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@nilmini_5000818 @MHR5000818 How long did it go for? And what kind of observations are done prior and following?

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@MHR5000818 at my placement they just have one nurse do all the medications, is this what happens in mental health or is it just my place?

[Emma @Emma_5000818]

@nov5000818 @MHR5000818 Probably what's eating Gilbert grape

[Bron MHR @MHR5000818]

Hi everyone, interesting to read about your learnings. Now I want you all to re-read the Headroom policy (subject guide & LMS) about what cannot be posted. I will assume that all student posts from here on are completely compliant with privacy requirements.

@nov5000818 @MHR5000818 The OT where I am at helps with teaching to use kitchen and washing and other adl but that could be because I am at a brain injury unit
