@OPSEU@OPSEUSmokey@celliottability Will you also be suggesting they include more professions like diagnostic imaging and lab in the pandemic pay if/when a second wave hits. They were VITAL in the first wave and deserve recognition. Better late than never would be ideal. #pandemicpay#pandemicpay#forgotten
@OPSEU@OAMRS1 any new updates on the temporary pandemic pay? At least @fordnation is lucky that Medical radiation technologists will continue to work tirelessly to aid in the pandemic despite lack of recognition. If we all stopped working, it wouldnt take long to see our value
Seriously, it's funny how EVERYONE in the hospital setting can figure out who is and isnt deserving of pandemic pay, but somehow it got totally screwed up by @fordnation. People with DIRECT contact like LAB and DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING are left out. Makes NO sense whatsoever. #pandemic
RN -> did you get your TPP payment yet?
ME->No, we weren’t added to the list.
RN-> Really ? Why not? You directly deal with COVID patients!
ME -> Ask fordnationdougford celliottability

Action is urgently needed. Please heed this call to action to challenge Bill 195. It is essential that we take a moment and call our respective MPPs to ensure that this does not become law.
We are extremely concerned about the implications of Bill 195, specifically how it undermines our ability to enforce our rights under our collective agreements. We cannot allow this to become the “new normal”. Sign the CCLA's petition to Stop Bill 195: https://t.co/V0IA9XJDWg
@fordnation If this area is struggling so much and so far behind the rest of the province in handling the pandemic why arent you giving ALL their hospital staff pandemic pay? @fordnation@celliottability@PBethlenfalvy
Updated pandemic pay list...Lab & DI still not included? NO RESPECT! You really dropped the ball on this one Doug! Endlessly praising lab & testing facilities for our efforts. No statistics or results without us! Epic fail on your part! You suck! #fordnation@celliottability
Thank you to our amazing Diagnostic Imaging (DI) staff across our hospital. We are so grateful to have staff that are so dedicated to the health of our community! The impact you have on our patients’ lives does not go unnoticed #ItsWhatsOnTheInsideThatCounts
@celliottability Will these supplies go to medical radiation technologists? Because you apparently dont consider them #FrontLineHeroes, or at least you dont see them as important enough to get pandemic pay. We go through A LOT of PPE because we are exposed to possible and confirmed COVID DAILY!
@fordnation@celliottability@PBethlenfalvy@OAMRS1 take a look at this lovely picture. Did you notice how close the MRTs are standing to their patients? That's because they cant do their job without patient contact.That includes COVID patients. #FrontLine we deserve pandemic pay
I feel the same way about the inclusions and exclusions. Lab techs and diagnostic imaging techs are #frontline and #EssentialWorkers and deserve recognition from the government for their efforts. @fordnation@celliottability please include us in pandemic pay!
Every time I see communication about essential worker pandemic pay, I get reoffended Schedulers and environmental services are listed, but lab personnel are excluded. @fordnation maybe you should ask them to run your covid testing. @mlpaoceo@csmls@MLPAOnews@onpoli@CBCAlerts
Why is allied health excluded from TPP per the ministry?The ministry is focused on HCP who regularly face the
threat of exposure to COVID. While services provided by allied
health providers are important, its not possible to say they face regular and consistent exposure. BS.
Always there for you in case of emergency and have been active during the COVID19 pandemic. It's about time that @fordnation recognizes medical radiation technologists and their #FRONTLINE work. They deserve pandemic pay too. @CAMRT_ACTRM@OAMRS1
Thanks for the image @ASRT
