Mary E. Jeffers, Esquire

More than 4,000 Injury and Disability Cases

Health care workers, more than most workers, need to react quickly in many different situations. They also must work with dangerous equipment, and hazardous substances. They also experience the same types of accidents that are found in other workplaces:

Allergic Reactions: Our workers’ comp law firm has cases of health care workers who were allergic to the building and chemicals in the building. Colorado workers’ compensation is no-fault based. All accidents caused by work, and diseases arising from work should be covered.

Back Injuries: Assisting a patient rise from a bed or lifting and turning patients can cause a back injury, a neck injury or a shoulder injury. Constant lifting and turning of patients may cause a back injury over time. Your employer may argue that your back injury is not work-related. Lawyer Mary Jeffers has helped clients establish that their back injury is work-related, and obtain their needed and deserved benefits.

Repetitive Motion Injuries: Nurses who keyboard patient data into computers, lab technicians who work with microscopes and others who engage in repetitive tasks may suffer from repetitive motion stress or carpal tunnel syndrome. Health care workers may also develop RSD (Reflex sympathetic dystrophy) over time.

If you are a health care worker who has been injured by dangerous materials, medical equipment, or a fall on a slippery floor, make sure you get the medical treatment and lost wages you need.
