Fighting for a Whole Home Air Purification System for Assisted Living Facility
A lot of people wondered how I could quit my task over something so minor, although I don’t see anything minor in air quality.
I was toiling in a retirement condo as well as have been there for years.
This is a large Georgia style mansion that has been converted into an assisted living facility. It is a modern facility with modern appliances. The arena is beautiful, inside as well as out, as well as my buddy and I worked hard to make it comfortable for our residents. Unblessedly, but, over the years, the air inside the condo had gotten stale, as well as more than 2 of the residents, over time, started suffering from dust irritations as well as breathing problems. I have appealed to the director to have a whole condo purification system installed as well as he claims that there just is no money to do it. I disagree. The health as well as well-being of the residents should be his number one priority as well as he should find the money for a whole condo air cleaner anywhere. We gave to help with fundraising, but the director was never interested… He genuinely didn’t understand the need for some type of air cleaner, then for almost a year, I watched the residents get sicker as well as sicker. It broke my heart. Finally, I submitted my two week notice. The director finally understood that I was drastic as well as he went out as well as bought room media air cleaners to arena around the facility, but that wasn’t enough to satisfy me. I didn’t find out until later that after I quit, so did a couple of my coworkers, on principal, as well as before long, the director had a whole condo air purification installed. Then he asked us all to come back to work. I missed almost a month of pay, but it was worth it.
