Hi,
Have just had an interview at work, re why I do not undertake MOVA(Moving of vunerable adults), which includes control and restraint. My job role was changed after the realisation of arthritis, but they are now looking at reasons why people are not doing this, me being one of those people. My job was changed to accomodate my capabilities, both with regards to hours and physical limitations, just over two years ago. Some of the questions asked were e.g., what would I find difficult if I was put back in my previous role? Where do I see my future? How would I know if things were getting bad again? I found the questions difficult to answer, as this is not a stable disease, and although I continue into my third year of maximum triple drug therapy, and the inflammatory markers are good, I continue to have aches and pains to variable degrees on a daily basis, and awaiting splints for thumb joints at present. I don't always know if I've over stretched myself until the next day, when I can be laid out for most of that day. With this in mind, how would others answer these questions? Will have to attend another occupational health appointment, and do worry if my job is under threat, especially in this climate at the moment.
Thanks for reading, and would really appreciate your take and answers to these questions.
