Hello, I've just been informed by the NHS that they do not pay for Needs Assessments until Nursing students are enrolled on their course. This is the first I've heard of this, and I'm quite alarmed as that would mean that these students would have to wait until well into their first semester before receiving the DSA, and in this case, one-to-one dyslexia tuition. It is also not in-line with the procedure followed by Local Authorities. I'm waiting for a call back from the NHS (from someone who I hope can tell me something different!), but was just wondering if anyone else had heard of this before?
