Workers’ Compensation For Pennsylvania Health Care Employees
Nurses and CNAs, otherwise known asย certified nursing assistants, are at an extremelyย high risk of getting hurt on the job. They are continually running up and down hallways and transporting patients. Anything from a dangerous or aggravatedย patient, to a slippery un-marked surface can cause serious problems. A standard medical device that has a bad reputationย for injuring nurses during use is a Hoyer Lift. A Hoyer Lift is used in transporting patientsย from beds to wheelchairs or operatingย tables.ย This device can cause injuries to both the patient and nurse if improperlyย used.
Other health works such as doctors, phlebotomists, physical therapists and other medical professionals are also faced with a variety of hazards in the workplace. Sometimes, these risks can cause a severe injury. When health care workers get hurt during their job, they have the right to pursue workers’ compensation. The Pennsylvania law firm of Krasno, Krasno & Onwudinjo is here to help these workers see that their rights are observed.
