Voice of the Provider is a collaboration between Brooks Rehabilitation and WorkCompCollege.com and the name defines its purpose. Many stakeholders in work comp do not understand or appreciate all of the various clinical providers that help an injured employee return to and stay at work. Whether recovery from the injury / illness is easy or hard, there are clinicians along the way that utilize their education, expertise and experience to help. This week, Josh Schuette, DPT, MBA, WRP interviews Case Manager Nick Fonner, about the roles that a Case Manager plays in the recovery of an injured worker. https://lnkd.in/essND4Ue

F&B Safety Communication Point 11: Interacting with Staff post-injury. When an incident occurs, its helpful to encourage staff to seek care, and then ask then to report the results of the treatment as soon as possible. Create an action plan regarding the incident and work with the staff to have a working strategy until they recover to full duty. @ucla #safetymanagement #management https://lnkd.in/gW-EJWRx

Transparency in the care we provide is key to the solid partnerships Medcor has built with our clients. Our clients - and their employees - trust that our advocates are providing care with their best interests and health outcomes in mind, and not corporate profits or artificially low on-the-job injury rates. As Leonardo Chappa, an onsite occupational health technician, says, "The value that I see Medcor bringing to a worksite is a connection between the safety team and the craft members. By us enforcing safety, making sure workers are doing OK out there and not hiding injuries, we can help close that gap." At Medcor, we work hard to reduce injuries by enforcing safety policies and procedures at your jobsite, keeping workers healthy and reducing your costs.

We need your help! This is your reminder to help us take action. Tell your members of Congress to support the bipartisan “Recognizing the Role of Direct Support Professionals Act” (H.R. 2941 / S. 1332), which requires the Office of Management and Budget to consider a separate category within the Standard Occupational Classification system for DSPs. When you reach out use or post for what to say and urge them to stand with us, until our DSP get the recognition they deserve. #greystoneprograms #StrongerTogether #nysbudget2024
