How Serious Are Shoulder Injuries Among Health Care Workers?

Many shoulder injuries are often overlooked initially, dismissed as minor strains. However, these seemingly harmless issues can escalate into debilitating conditions if not addressed promptly. 

The demanding nature of health care workers’ jobs, including the repetitive lifting and assisting of patients, exposes them to a higher risk of musculoskeletal issues.

The specific consequences of a serious shoulder injury depend on the nature and severity of the injury. Our helpful and approachable attorneys can help you know the available legal options.

  • Dental services for injuries to the teeth and gums
  • Mileage reimbursement for travel expenses to and from medical appointments
  • Specialist care, such as orthopedic surgeons or neurologists, if required for your injury
  • Mental health services, such as counseling or psychiatric care, may be covered if the injury or illness has led to psychological issues
  • Home modifications may be covered in cases of severe injury, such as wheelchair ramps

Do not stop medical care prematurely. If you do, the insurance company may stop your coverage and claim you are no longer injured. 

Insurance companies use gaps in treatment as grounds for denying continued medical benefits. If you have questions about these matters, our attorneys can help. You can also see our overview of denied workers’ comp claims to learn more.

How Important Is Workers’ Compensation To Health Care Workers?

Workers’ compensation is a crucial support system for health workers during the healing process, emphasizing the need to refrain from rushing back to work after an injury because of it:

  • Offers financial assistance like medical expenses, rehabilitation costs and a portion of lost wages during their healing period
  • Provides the necessary time for a comprehensive recovery
  • Operates within a legal framework that recognizes the rights of employees injured on the job
  • Often includes provisions for rehabilitation services, such as physical therapy or vocational training

Engage the services of a skilled Michigan workers’ compensation lawyer to maximize the compensation you deserve.
