Hello Amanda,
can I play devil's advocate? If this 'fitness advisor' is part of the OH
Team then does this not mean he may need to have access to staff notes?
For example he may need to gain detail on past history etc. If he had to
get written consent each time this would be very time consuming. He could
of course ask to have a look, but what if you were on leave?
I suppose it depends on why he needs access, and what he does with the
info. Is it to aid treatment or merely to pass an hour?
I guess the problem I'm wrestling with is if he's paid out of the OH
budget, and part of the team then does this allow direct access? I have to
admit the more I think about this the less sure I am myself!
Can you let us know how it develops?
Regards
Glenn
