We have a 24 hour RN triage line (contracted).

The employee calls the line and describes the incident and receives instructions for injury appropriate measures.

A report is generated immediately.That report goes to the WC RN specialists that reports to me and she is the initial contact person for the injured employee.

Thanks,

Colleagues,

When an employee at your facility reports a new injury, who makes the initial contact? Human resources or a medical professional (MA, LPN, RN, other [please list/describe])?

Thank you.
