Last year I went from being a hospital floor nurse to the Quality department. I feel so much better getting away from all the standing, bending, running, lifting, pushing, dressing :jab:.... you get the idea.
So my desk is in a department that is not Quality but many places are this way, space sharing.
About two weeks ago i hear that the department is going to move everyone around. I think so they can all get along better. I sit in a room with two volunteers and two employees that are great. I have been told that i will be moving, up front. This up front area has full ceiling to almost floor windows that are approx five feet from where my desk will be. The last time any new blinds or window film was placed was in the 1980's!!!!! I am just betting that there is no UVA or UVB blocking going on!
I talked with the director of that area, my director and the employee health nurse. I have printed out all information about sun sensitivity and my doctor is writing me a letter for them about my lupus, sun exposure and what it does to a lupus person. They seem interested in doing the right thing but until it is done i cant help but worry.
I went up there at different times during the day and the sun exposure is pretty much the whole day. Now the view is great, park, fountain etc... :dancing:
BUT, I know that the issue is who will pay for this uv blocking. My boss said they should pay as they are the ones moving me out of my office. I tend to agree, but someone will have to do something before i let them move my desk :tantrum:
