Skibbereen, Cork Aug 18, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - The Irish telemedicine platform Get Sick Cert works tirelessly to spread awareness about the importance of taking adequate rest, attending to sickness, and taking steps to reduce exam stress and the risk of developing any medical emergency.
- Take sick leave from the university.
- Give yourself adequate rest.
- Calm your mind during exams
The company has launched a digital process for university students to obtain a digital sick note from GP who is Irish-registered without having to visit them in person. The simple but highly regularised process makes it highly useful for students to relax and reduce mental stress as exam season approaches.
The technology and digital system are regularised and follow all Irish State Law guidelines for legitimacy; thus, they are accepted by universities nationwide.
Prevalence of Exam Sickness in Ireland
Do you know that Irish teenagers rank third in the EU and fourth across 36 OECD countries as the best readers?
Yet still, Ireland has a shockingly high prevalence of exam-related stress and sickness compared to other developed countries.
A recent PISA survey of 600,000 post-primary and higher education students offered convincing evidence. It was revealed that over 10% of 15- to 16-year-olds actually feel ill at the thought of a test. Over 52% of students fall sick due to the fear of failing, while 23% fall sick as a consequence of exam pressure from teachers and parents.
There have been several cases where students have experienced epilepsy seizures during exam times. The good news is that such students can now retake the exams and clear the papers later on, based on the severity and condition of their illness.
The SEC outlined the criteria for Irish Leaving Cert candidates who have medical emergencies or suffer a serious accident, injury, or illness while taking their exams should be granted access to any deferred exams.
