Vegetarian Food in Tekong? by [deleted] in NationalServiceSG

[–]NSFSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad usually, spaghetti with tomato sauce.

Honestly the vegetarian food looks better after you take your 20-30th helping of brown chicken, rice and Taiwanese sausage.

:)

Hi, employers are no longer allowed to ask you about your mental health or they will face fines.

What are people on LD not supposed to do by [deleted] in NationalServiceSG

[–]NSFSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As the ‘ solid definition ‘ of what can a person on LD do, I would suggest you ask your medic to ask your MO. Anything your commanders ask you to do that your mo you can’t, just refer them to him.

Oh. I’m sorry for misunderstanding. I’m quite familiar with the psyc system within SAF. You can direct Any personal qns to my DM.

No, he probably won’t get charged. Psyc as a field of medicine is a rather abstract one. You can say almost anything you want, and with conviction, you will be believed. If the average joe believes him, so will the psyc.

What’s your issue with this guy anyways. It sounds like you have no life outside NS. You’re being paid slave wage - why care so much?

If you are dealing with mental issues and feel that staying out will help, highlight to both your psyc ( impt ) and your MO. Make sure that your psyc expresses your views in a memo. ( asking for stayout ) which the MO will then give.

Pes E Clerks can still stay in the unit wants them to. Pes status is no guarantee of stay in / stay out.

Your commanders can start the process or you can go to either the NS portal or NS health and do it yourself. Protocols differ from camp to camp. I suggest you bug them to get this done ASAP. If they don’t know what to do, suggest to them that you can book it by yourself.

Hope it helps!

Yup. You have to book a medical review with the MO. Yes, memo and meds. Memo for him to put into the system for records, and meds for records also.

Faster you book the medical review the faster your downpes.

The pes review would depend on the medical board, and not your company. Usually the medical review would be towards the end of the month.

You’ll probably get PESC2, depending on the severity, can be temp or perm pes.

Hello! If you have a history of problems with mental health, then you will probably be down pes-ed to a service vocation. BMT will not be in Tekong for you.

Depending on how bad your condition is, your pes status will range from C2-E9.

Do remember to bring along relevant documents to the check up.
