Healthcare Industry – Patient-Related Injuries for Hospital Employees
While working at a hospital, healthcare industry employees may experience patients during challenging and volatile times. For example, they may have to calm down a patient suffering from a severe mental health episode or help someone who is extremely emotional after a recent diagnosis. Though they play an important role in helping people find the care they need, examples like these put hospital workers at an increased risk of violence and patient-related injuries.
If they have a harmful incident with a hospital patient, hospital and healthcare industry employees can sustain injuries like:
- Lacerations
- Broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Back or neck injuries
Incidents like these can also take a heavy mental toll, which can lead to an increased risk of mental illness and have an impact on a worker’s physical health.
