A Long Record of Helping Health Care Workers Obtain Workers' Compensation Benefits
Health care workers include clerical workers, custodial workers and cafeteria workers, as well as nurses, nurse's aids, RNs, technicians, doctors and at-home care providers. Health care workers can be found in nursing homes, hospitals, clinics and specialty facilities.
As America's health care industry grows in size and complexity, questions arise regarding workers' compensation coverage for many health care industry workers. Are nurses and home health care providers covered for workers' compensation benefits if they are injured en route to a patient's home, even if they were not reimbursed for travel mileage? Are hourly workers covered if they are injured on site but after they have punched out?
If you are injured, or suspect you are injured, and have questions regarding workers' compensation coverage, benefits and the legal processes involved, please call us. A quick call can answer your questions and determine your next steps.
