[MCOH-EH] Fitness for duty policy

[Enass Awad]

Thanks everybody for your valuable input. We are following the same
procedure here, however sometimes our HR gets confused as to the extent of
the patients' rights to a particular decision so I have had to draft a
policy which clearly outlines each entity's role.
Thanks again,

Enass
