Workers’ compensation services at Penn Medicine
We provide complete care for injured employees and support and guidance for employers.
Physicians and nurse practitioners specially trained in occupational health provide thorough injury assessment and diagnosis. The assessment process typically includes a physical exam, medical history review, and testing like imaging or bloodwork.
Employees receive prompt treatment and reliable follow-up care for work-related injuries, illnesses, and exposures. Our providers have experience treating routine and complex conditions such as:
- Back injuries
- Broken bones
- Concussions
- Crush injuries
- Cuts and burns
- Slips and falls
- Strains and sprains
We follow each patient through their treatment plan, monitor progress, and provide fitness-for-duty and return-to-work evaluations. Our staff keeps employers updated on the health of their employees and the claims process.
Our staff offer on-site visits to identify potential safety hazards and reduce the risk of workplace injuries. We also provide information on ergonomics (healthy body mechanics at work) and management of industry-specific hazards such as bodily fluid exposure or needle sticks.
