[QUOTE="ebony321, post: 150541, member: 17199"] Hiiii, I was just wondering... I've been wanting to apply for a long long time to work in a place called 'alps college' it's a place that looks after young autistic adults. Some live there and some come for the day or a small part of the day.. When i got an application form they wanted me to go into great detail about my medical history, Which i totally understand as you must be in good health and mind to assist young adults with autism. However i was too scared to apply in fear of being Rejected because i have diabetes. Back when i first got the application form because my diabetes wasn't very well controlled, My sister's fiance works there and said she could put in a good word for me and not to worry about it... But i didn't find it fair to apply for a job to be responsible for someone else when i couldn't be responsible for my diabetes. But now my diabetes is really 6 million times better. and i'm also soon getting a pump too. So after all that natter my question is... Would it be better for me to get sort of a medical refernce from my diabetes nurse if i were to apply? I want to go to university to do a health and social care degree and with no a-levels i need work experience which i'm definately NOT getting from my boring office job i do now :) and insight greatly massively super appreciated. thanks!:) [/QUOTE]
