I know you are meeting with the board about medical and I was the one that has incurred over $500 of outstanding medical expenses due to Be Well closed. Due to working at home in a non-ergonomic setting 40 hours a week I’m having lower back, hip, neck and shoulder pains. I was going 4-6 weeks as preventative care at Be Well now I’m being seen by a local chiropractor several times a month to ease the pain I’m feeling. It should be noted last week I did receive an email stating certain clinics I can now be seen for chiropractor services with no co-payment.

On July 6, I asked Lt. Lambertson if someone in maintenance could vacuum the records area once or twice a week.  It took a day before they sent someone down to vacuum our area.  Previously the Records area had not been vacuumed for weeks.  (It was getting ridiculous.)

On August 2, an e-mail was sent Lt. Lambertson asking for dividers in between our desk and common walkways around our desk. 

The Department of Corrections, Adult Field Services Dept. has started recalling OSIII’s back to work, on a rotational part-time basis. Since being recalled back to work, they have run into several issues in the office, such as equipment not working properly, no supervisory support to assist with these issues as they arise, being the lone worker in each location and thus having safety concerns or the inability to get adequate breaks. There was a case of COVID at one office, yet the OSIII in that office was never asked to quarantine themself or get tested for COVID.
