getParamCached seems like the right solution to me. You might be able to build that in python.
An alternative would be to publish /operating_condition using a latched publisher. I guess this is low-frequency data, so using a latched publisher should work well and later connecting nodes do get the data. The disadvantage would obvisouly be: If the publisher goes down, the information is lost.
