If my work has identfied me as an essential worker, what are my options with Heart disease BV and aortic aneurysm?
I work with young adults with special needs and the government has identified these learners as vulnerable. Is there any way I can protect myself?
Up until yesterday work was asking for volunteers, now it seems to be a bit ore compulsory.
Your heart conditionsmakes your health more fragile increasing your risk of complications from Coronavirus. Your employer has an equal duty if care to you as well as the organisation's clients. There is more information in the BHF's pinned post:
I am also a key worker and although predominately I am working from home I still have to conduct visits to homes and schools, police stations etc. Unfortunately, there’s massive social implications for keeping children and parents at home 24/7.... therefore, the only precautions I can take are social distancing and hand washing. I did where a mask 😷 in a school yesterday and felt a right pillock.
