Covid-19 OSHA Complaint, Vassar Brothers Medical Center, 61 Reade Place, POUGHKEEPSIE, NY, 12601, USA
3 years ago
CT work room is unsafe for patients and staff. It is 71 sq ft for 20 rotating technologists, with a 15 ft of desk space 2ft behind desk for chairs and standing room. A giant electric box on a side wall that says stay 3-6 feet away
due to arcing. There is no door between patients and staff exposing us to radiation and giving us no ability to properly clean or isolate ourselves from Covid 19. For one year no staff tested positive. We are in this unsafe illegal room for less than a month and we have 3 positive cases. The small compromised space also came with one less work station plus they got rid of all the assistants. Because of their financial restraints employees are starting to see that this is an extremely unsafe situation for patients and staff and the current set up is clearly having an affect on positive Covid cases.
