Second Year Nursing Student UK: Mental Health Awareness | Q & A

[@ClaireCarmichael]

Thank you again to Taylor for sharing her experiences with us. She’s come so far in her personal journey and she’s amazing. I’m so proud of her for this video. More needs to be done for those with various mental health conditions! Lack of staffing, lack of funding and lack of services just isn’t good enough in my eyes. And it’s no ones fault in particular. There’s no big endless money tree. But I do believe every single healthcare professional and public services should be trained to effectively care for those with mental health. But for now, if everyone could approach on a non judgmental way and take the time to listen to the individual that’s an amazing start to making change here.

I totally agree with Taylor on her suggestion for a place for people with mental health issues to go to almost like an old folks home type set up so it would be like a big house where there’s a living room area you could go watch tv or go have a brew in the kitchen and there would be doctor and mental health nurses and psychiatrists who work there so you could literally just go in if you just wanted somewhere to chill out you wouldn’t have to talk to anyone but if you wanted to you could go speak to a mental health nurse or a psychiatrist/psychologist etc I think it would be such a good idea. There would be surgeries for them to work if people need a one on one chat and they could come back whenever they need for support or even just to take their mind off things they could go sit and watch tv and at least it’s a safe place
