I have to say I agree wholeheartedly.
Chris is quite right, OH Nurses need to stand up and be counted.
I have had just 7 responses indicating attendance at the NEC.
Not really going to back your collective corner is it ?
Come on..

Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Insufficient OH Resource
To: [log in to unmask]Good afternoon all,
I have followed the thread below with interest, and note your collective disagreement with the BBC and Government in general, regarding their support of OH.
Can I ask if many of you will be attending the Health and Wellbeing conference in the NEC on the 5th/6th March ?
Surely a good turnout here will support calls for increased resources ?
Bob – I note you are speaking, but how many others will be attending ?
Kind regards,

Subject: Re: [OCC-HEALTH] FW: BBC Breakfast TV this morning
Alan said: I think one has to accept that there aren't enough OH services. I agree Alan there aren't and it may be that where we have been a scarce resource and quite elite - one day in the future there may MANY OH's up and down the country. Or could it be that any liaison with GP's regarding restricted or return to work is organised with another type of professional - in USA/Australia return to works are carried out by physiotherapists/occupational therapists.
Alan said: What does a GP do in his/her 10 minute appointment when the patient's physical/mental health problem needs to be managed and there is minimal information about what the job can involve or what RTW arrangements there might be available?It could mean that the patient, once assessed by GP, is then referred onto the surgery / town work adviser who, based on previously assessed job risks in the company the patient works for, makes the recommendations and liases with the company to see if any restrictions can be accommodated.
Alan said: The employers don't bother to contact the GP or the patient about reduced hours or reduced workload, they just want the body back at work.While I acknowledge that this may be the case in many smaller companies and I have worked in some of them (Oh the frustration!) I have spent the last 13 months trying really hard to get GP's to respond to my pleas with no luck, I've even invited them to a tour with freebies - not a single taker! so cant say that this has been the case of any GP's knocking or ringing!
Kind regards
Gail
