Helping Injured Health Care Professionals Receive Fair Compensation

Working with patients can be mentally and physically taxing. In a strange reversal, it is sometimes the health care professional who sustains injuries in the course of performing his or her duties.

Like other employees, health care workers are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits when they are hurt on the job. If you or a loved one was hurt, our firm will fight to make sure you get the wage benefits and medical treatment you are entitled to by law.

At Noack Law Office, we offer over 25 years of experience representing injured workers across Minnesota. Our mission is to help employees, like our tireless health care professionals, receive just compensation for injuries sustained in the line of duty. Health care workers we represent include:

We understand the challenges faced by health care professionals and are dedicated to securing fair compensation for work-related injuries.

Types Of Injuries Associated With Health Care Professionals

In the course of carrying out their work, health care professionals can suffer a variety of injuries. Some of these include:

  • Back injuries: Common among nurses and CNAs due to lifting and moving patients.
  • Needlestick injuries: Medical technicians and nurses are at risk of needlestick injuries, which could lead to infections, illness and other complications.
  • Musculoskeletal disorders: Lab technicians and hospital staff may develop musculoskeletal disorders from repetitive tasks or poor ergonomics.
  • Slip-and-fall accidents: Nursing home employees and hospital staff are susceptible to slip-and-fall injuries while navigating patient rooms or busy hospital corridors.
  • Work-related stress: Doctors and nurses often face high levels of stress, which may lead to mental health issues or exacerbate existing physical conditions.
