I'm so pleased this country has a Disability Discrimination Act. Once this was pointed out to the clinic mentioned in my last blog, the second letter I received was significantly more accommodating. I didn't expect as much as they offered. But am very happy. I am about as protected as I could have hoped from the chemicals that were making me sick, while still visiting a public place.
1. I have a separate room to wait in away from the general populace - it is well ventilated & I can sit outside on the veranda
2. The clinic I now attend has better ventilation & I can still see my own GP
3. I can leave straight after & pay by phone & not wait at perfumed reception to pay
4. The air perfume dispenser will be removed from one toilet
Well done to them for coming through.
