In this episode of the Neurodivergent Experience, we engage in a deep conversation with Anthony Harding, a nurse associate in the NHS, about the challenges faced by neurodivergent individuals within the healthcare system. We discuss Anthony's personal journey, the lack of understanding and training regarding neurodivergence among medical professionals, and the importance of accommodations for neurodivergent staff.
