Hi Mike, after driving for an hour to get to the assessment it was cancelled, on my insistence they managed to see her at 16:20 65 minutes late. The nurse we saw was difficult to say the least. My daughter was in tears almost from the start. She was asked had she had suicidal thoughts to which she said she had, does your GP know she affirmed he did. The nurse then asked do you have thoughts of self harming? Again my daughter said she did, "So you don't now, but not anymore" my daughter had to say that she did. She was asked twice about getting into a bath after explaining that she had a walk in shower due to back problems. Although my daughter explained that she didn't drive she was asked twice about driving. Do you have pets? No After an hour we left. On the way home I had to pull over as my daughter had a major panic attack and thought she was having a heart attack. We eventually got home at 19:06. We live near Croydon, South London and the assessment was at Barking, East London.
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
