Before letter

goes

out, can we

talk

about

who

will

take

media calls

on

this. We

have lines prepared but

need

to

ensure vre agree

on who

should

speak.

Perhaps

one of

our

Doctors

would

be

appropriate?

As

doctors,

it

is important

for

us

to

abide by

the

standards and

practices

in

place

for our

profession.

As health care

professionals

with

the RCMP,

it is important that the

primary

consideration driving

our actions

be our

employees'

health and

wellness , says

Dr. lsabelle

Fieschi,

BC

RCMP

Health Services.

The

most

important

thing for

us, and

quite

frankly

for taxpayers,

is to

get

our

employees

healthy

and

returned to

work

as

soon

as

possible.

We

have

to

ensure

tax

dollars are

going

to those

services

that

can accomplish

that

in

the

most

effective

way, and

to those

who

are

putting

the

needs

of

our

employees

ahead

of

any

personal

agenda

they

may have.

RCMP

policy

requires

our

regional

psychologist

to

periodically

review

our

list

of authorized

service

providers

and verify

a number of

things,

including that

they

are:

f

.

in

good

standing

with the

respective

professionalgoverning

body;

2.

maintaining ethical

conduct

and

high

professional

standards

in

the

services

provided

to

members;

3.

charging

fees within

the

limits

established

by

the appropriate provincial/federal

body;

and

4.

has

performed

acceptably

in

previous

work with

members, e.g.

Satisfactory

reports,

reasonable waiting

period

for

appointments,

terminate

treatment

when

there

is little

chance

of

progress.

We

have

added and

removed

other

care

providers

in

the

past

and

will

continue to

do

so

as

we

strive

to

provide

access to

the best

possible

health care and

clinical staff

for

our employees

Having

a

list

of recommended

psychologists

is simply

good

business

practice

for any employer

We

have to

ensure

that our

employees

are

receiving

the

best

possible

care

for

the

funding

we

provide.

We

are

committed

to

providing

assistance

to members

who make the transition to a

funded

psychologist. Please

understand

that

members are free to continue

to

access

the

services

of

any

psychologist;

however if

the

psychologist

of

their

choosing is

not on

our

recommended

list

of

funded

service

providers

they will simply be

responsible

for the full

payment

of all

of

his/her

fees

The

priority

for

us

though is

to

get

our employees

helpful

treatment

from

an

impartial

service

provider

that

shares our

goal

of

getting

them

back

to

work.
