We had a discharge from our unit today. Mental health nurses here don’t just fulfill the normal duties required at the CCU, but making sure clients transition out to a safe & secure home through participating in the process of moving is also part of the scope @MHR5000818
We got to go out with some clients from our CCU into the city for a meal today. Activities like these help promote independence when they transition from the care of the CCU to re-entering society in the future. @mhr5000818
@Jessica5000818@MHR5000818 Sorry to hear about your day Jess, we have a client who had an incident where he threatened staff and co clients with a steak knife recently. When questioned about the incident he couldn’t say why he did it. This shows that we should be kept on our toes at all times.
@mhr5000818 Found this interesting article that related to the misdiagnosis of an autoimmune disease as schizophrenia as patients display similar symptoms to psychosis.

This article on ABC talks about some atypical cases of ED. You dont have to appear thin to be suffering from ED. It also touches on how media influences body image and also how over-exercising in men can be overlooked as an ED.
