what is mental health nurse officer training like?

Tori C.

Regimental Medical Officer

Hello, This will depend on whether or not you are qualified prior to joining the Army. Please see our website for more information on entry routes and what training you can expect https://apply.army.mod.uk/roles/army-medical-service/mental-health-nurse I am afraid I do not have any more detail than is provided by our website, but if you start an application, your application manager will be able to advise you in more detail of what training you will go through. Usually during the application process you will also have the opportunity to speak to serving mental health nurses so you can hear more about their experiences.
