Cypress Health Region - Shaunavon Hospital and Care Centre
Hi Ho Hi Ho, it’s off to the doctor’s office we must go… Again?
Isn’t this a WASTE of the tax payers’ money when we have to keep going back to the doctor to satisfy the CYPRESS HEALTH REGION? How much does a doctor get paid from the province every time he sees a patient at the clinic?
I would be interested to know, how the doctors feel about being told to reword or redo a note, regarding a employee health status. How belittling for them. Who is the doctor here! Not to mention how the employee has to go to the doctor note in hand and say its not good enough! How humiliating.
ReplyDeleteIn our facility they have the chess graphs posted right in full view for everyone to see, public included. They show how:
ReplyDeletethis is where we used to be
this is where we wanted to be!
OH!! and look here this is where we are! way ahead of the game.
I feel this is just another intimadation tactic and what people need to know is that not much has changed we still have sick and injured people, the difference is we are now working sick and injured!! :~(
So, my primary caregiver, who has MY best interest in mind when completing an "ability" note, has no real input as to my recovery and healing process. The Region can deem the note unacceptable.
ReplyDeleteThe Cypress Health Region should have an in-house for the physicians and specialists to explain to them that nothing short of complete bed rest on an ability note will prevent a sick and injured patient from being forced back to the work place "on their next scheduled shift".
Sick and injured employees in wheelchairs, casts, slings, and taking narcotic pain meds in the workplace?? You bet. It is already happening.
