This board has been awesome, I have a question for you all.
I am starting nursing school (already accepted) and I have a sheet that has to be filled out by my doctor and I have to list any medications I am on. I have to take pain medictions (including anti-depressant) and I wanted to know if this would change my acceptance into nursing school?
I am currently working at a major hospital and love working as a tech and can't wait to be a nurse.
>>in my previous post when i asked about an employer, i was asking for the future employer once you finish your nursing school. i was asking if you would
disclose the information to your future employer.
i currently work for one of the best major hospitals and had no problem sharing my information because testing was done by a 3rd party, and i was told by the nurse who did my physical that my rights were protected - as was my medical information. i believe this to be true of most employers, but i don't feel comfortable with all my medical history on display for my nursing instructors/school. i just don't see how the same protection for me could be in place.
i think giving medical information to an employer (through a third party) is much different than a college.
i will let this drop now and no further responses needed. thanks to those who shared their insight!
