Workplace Injury Frequently Asked Questions

WARNING: All of the information provided here is of a general nature only. The specific facts of your case may require a completely different answer. Do not base any decision with respect to your case solely on any of the answers found herein. Prior to making any decision with respect to your case, you should speak with a competent attorney who is familiar with the laws that relate to your case.

What type of medical attention should I seek?

Generally, you should go to the emergency room, or one of the many “Doc-in-the- Box” facilities, such as a Patient First, for your initial visit. If, however, you have a family doctor with whom you have a good relationship, and you can get in to see him or her either that same day, or the next day, that is also fine.
