Common Healthcare Injuries

There are a number of ways you can be injured or harmed when working in the healthcare field, including:

  • Contracted illness and harmful exposure to deadly toxins or diseases
  • Back, arm, or shoulder pain from transporting patients in wheelchairs, gurneys, etc.
  • Repetitive strain injuries
  • Injury from surgical equipment
  • Violence by mentally ill patients
  • Slips, trips, and falls on wet, cluttered, or ill-maintained hospital floors

What Can Healthcare Employees Do About Work-Related Injuries?

One of the best things you can do (after receiving immediate medical attention) is connect with a workers’ compensation attorney. An experienced legal professional will be able to help you assess your workers’ comp options, the total damages you have incurred and are likely to incur, and what level of compensation you deserve for your work-related injury.

It is also essential to document the effects of your injury every step of the way. Always hang on to doctors’ notes, prescriptions, hospital bills, and any other record of costs associated with your injury.

Also be sure to document the other effects of your injury or ailment, such as time spent out of work, relational and social consequences, changes in your ability to fulfill your professional duties, and so on.

How Much Workers’ Compensation Should I Get for a Healthcare-Related Injury?

The amount of compensation you may be entitled to all depends on the nature, cause, and extent of your injuries. If your injury is not life-threatening and merely produces discomfort, you may still have access to workers’ compensation, if necessary.

If your injuries are serious and potentially life-changing, even for a short season, you may be entitled to a much larger workers’ compensation check. It all depends on how your injuries have affected you and what the damages are.
