Occupational Health
Another facet of our commitment to the communities we serve is demonstrated by our dedication to Industrial Medicine through our Workers' Compensation injury program.
Injuries that occur in the workplace require immediate attention. At Orthopedic Associates of Kankakee (O.A.K.) we evaluate and treat those injuries sustained at the workplace in a manner that benefits both the injured employee and their employer. Our staff promptly communicates our assessment of the employee's injury, along with any specific treatment that was administered, to the employer and the insurance provider. These methods prove highly effective in reducing Workers' Compensation claims and disputes.
In addition, we work with the injured employee to facilitate his or her return to work at a safe and comfortable pace, while consulting with the employer to ease the transition with minimal disruption and optimal production. We also provide safety assessments of the work environment and educational programs that can reduce the risk of recurrent accidents in the workplace.
Employers, employees and insurance providers can trust the Occupational Health practices and policies of Orthopedic Associates of Kankakee, along with the knowledge that we also provide quality, comprehensive care and treatment to the patient. Another facet of our commitment to the communities we serve is demonstrated by our dedication to Industrial Medicine through our Workers' Compensation injury program.
