Hello,
I'm an international student and I found nursing programs that are direct entry MSN so your bachelor's degree can be any subject. I have Asperger's and severe OCD and I'd like to know if in your opinion students have to change diapers and clean up poo and vomit even in a direct entry MSN program? Please don't judge, I tried my best to overcome my OCD but it's impossible to wash my hair and wash myself the way OCD would force me after every single clinical/shift. But I still want to be a nurse so I thought I would just study longer. Also I'm most interested in psychiatry.
