preparation for placement in the mental health sector

Correct!

 

Based on the information presented in the video, possible beneficial referrals may include:

 Aboriginal health worker - Tiahleigh is Aboriginal and as such may benefit from liasing with an Aboriginal health worker

Smoking cessation - Tiahleigh is a current smoker. As most mental health wards do not permit smoking, a referal for support with smoking cessation may be beneficial

Dietitian - As Tiahleigh's current BMI is 42, and she would like to lose weight, she may benefit from working with a dietitian.
