Dear Karen Parkinson Please find attached my Doctor's note, of Feb 2, 2022. I quote it here for your reference, This is a letter of support for my patient Richard, following up on my care of Richard, see Nov 10, 2021 sick leave letter. A return to work letter has been requested by your institution. Please note, this return has been impeded by your demand for frequent monitoring by myself. Richard is currently proceeding well. He will be returning to the PREVIOUS reduced work load prior to his most recent sick leave in 2021. This reduced work load has been in effect since 2016 and is required to continue for medical reasons until further notice. In particular the letter identifies the stress induced by your handling of my file. I wrote in a previous letter that you, as an RN are responsible for the health and well being of your employees. I urge you to follow my Doctors' request and do not add extra stress to my situation and handle my leave with integrity and respect within the University Institution I will not be dealing with third party (insurers or otherwise) related to my medical condition. Sincerely, Richard Mann Waterloo ON Attached: Doctor's note On 3/7/22 15:43, Karen Parkinson wrote: > > Hello Richard, > > We still have not received the requested medical form to support ongoing sick leave. > > > > I am attaching the forms you will require for the referral to our Third-Party Early Referral Provider, Lifeworks (formerly Morneau Shepell), in order to assist us in managing your sick leave benefits. > > > > I have attached 4 forms: > > > > 1) Consent form- please sign and return to me within 2 business days > > > > 2) Letter from HR (for your information) > > > > 3) Employee Guide (for your Information) > > > > 4) Attending Physician Form- Please take this to your Physician to complete and forward to Lifeworks within 2 weeks. > > > > Should you have any questions, please let me know. > > > > Stay safe, > > > > Karen Parkinson, RN, COHN(C) She/Her > > Manager, Occupational Health > > Occupational Health, COM 115 > > Phone: (519) 888-4567 ext 40538|Confidential Fax: (519) 888-4377 > > occupationalhealth@uwaterloo.ca > > Employee & Family Assistance Program (EFAP) 1-800-663-1142 Homeweb.ca > > > > Do you have COVID symptoms, or have been exposed to COVID?
