I have no budget for this...
The hospital provides 3 separate chair option you must choose or furnish your own.
For sit stand the employee can purchase from approved models...
We generally dont provide sitt stand paid by us...there are other solutions that are reasonable accommodations

For those of you who work in a hospital setting, I am curious how you manage requests for specialty chairs, sit-to-stand desks and other items that employees say they need.  I receive these requests, and I am unsure of what items should come out of the Occupational Health Department as an accommodation and what should come out of the department budget.  I had employee bring me an Rx from her provider for a sit-to-stand desk after she was off for a non-work-related surgery.  Other employees tell me they need a specific chair for ergonomics, and the managers feel it should come from my budget.
