Posted By Pat Organ I am looking for some guidance on Cystic fibrosis
What it is we are currently building an extension to a school which will take 18months. This has been planned for over 6 years and it has now only materialized that one of the parents on the school committee whose child has Cystic fibrosis is complaining that her daughter might die, which is very strong language to use in any case.
I have met with the principle of the school and he is grand but he was not impressed with the language she used, and she has been on the committee for over 7years and never once has this come up. He thinks the parents, if that worried about there daughter, move her to another school for 2 years, As this project is going ahead anyway.
As the Main Contractor we already had in place, dust prevention procedures and I was happy we were carrying it out as planned.
But this has changed everything; I have got in a professional company to do dust monitoring for us. But that does not stop the worrying that something from my site may have detrimental consequences on a student.
Also we have requested a letter from her consultant at what level will the dust affect her at.
We are currently continuing our work on-site as normal until told otherwise.
So I am wondering have any of you come across this and what did you do.
Pat

Posted By Sally What is the parent requesting that you do? Are they suggesting that you don't build the extension.
I agree with the Principal that in this case if there is a genuine risk (don't know enough about CF to judge) then changing the childs school is a reasonable control measure.
