Ergonomic injuries account for 60-70%
of all injuries nationally but are 90% of all costs. Our "Doctor-on-Call"
program can help.
WorkRite Safety will provide a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) to work in
your facility alongside the occupational health nurse. The bottom line
advantage to using chiropractic includes:
* DCs accurately diagnose and prescribe treatment within their
scope of practice, having more value than non-doctor providers;
* DCs specialize in diagnosis and treatment of the most prevalent
and costly types of injuries that occur in the workplace (ergonomic-related
injuries).
Benefits to your company by WorkRite's "Doctor-on-Call" program
are:
* validation and triage injuries, referring to affiliated facilities
and providers as appropriate;
* In-house treatment of both work related and non-work related
injuries and conditions. This convenience allows easy access to care
for workers and eliminates off-site consultation, providing greater
control of work related injuries;
* Assistance with light-duty recommendations;
* Assistance with hazard ID and control measures;
* Understanding injury statistics such as DART, DAFQII, and Mod-Factor
and its impact to your company;
* A focus for limiting or eliminating lost time and restricted
days;
* Understanding state workers' compensation laws;
* Assisting your company toward controlling the impact work related
injuries have;
* Greater participation of employees in workplace wellness programs;
* and, bottom line...greater productivity, work quality and company-wide
morale.
