1 A guide to Kaiser On-the-Job

2 Work as medical treatment Modified duty is an important part of your employee s medical treatment. For most sick or injured workers, the best way to recover is to return to some form of safe, productive work while they are healing. Modified duty makes medical sense and is good business practice An organization s greatest asset is its workforce. When employees can t work because of illness or injury, they and the company suffer losses in income and morale. Short-term modified duty can contribute to quality medical treatment for your worker. And it can be an important way to reduce disabilityrelated expenses. Kaiser Permanente is committed to providing the best possible medical care for your workers. Our return-to-work focus benefits both employers and employees by keeping employees productive, safe, and on the job. Building a modified-duty program A good modified-duty program helps keep workers more active and in better shape than if they were staying at home. This means that your workers will be less likely to be reinjured after they go back to full duty. For your worker s safety, it is important to design a plan that follows the recommendations the doctor has written on the Kaiser On-the-Job Return to Work Form. All workers treated by Kaiser On-the- Job care providers receive a Kaiser On-the-Job Return to Work Form at each visit. What s in a modified-duty plan? Under modified duty, you and your employee work together to design temporary assignments for the employee to do until he or she is able to return to full duty. Your company may have a modified-duty coordinator or someone in your human resources department who can help with this process. Your employee s Kaiser On-the-Job Return to Work Form will help you to identify duties that the employee can do. Here are some general principles that can help you develop modified-duty assignments. The assignment should: Help build your employee s morale. Protect your employee by following the suggestions and restrictions the doctor has written on the form. Reduce indirect expenses for employee replacement and retraining. Have value to both you and your employee.

11 SE 97th Emergency care Emergency care is for emergency medical conditions. Emergency medical conditions are conditions in which the immediate onset of symptoms, including severe pain, leads a prudent layperson to believe that immediate care is needed: to avoid serious impairment of organs or bodily functions, or because there is a serious threat to the health of the individual or a fetus (unborn child). Some conditions that are not life-threatening, such as broken bones and deep cuts, could become serious if not evaluated and/or treated immediately. What to do for emergencies Take immediate action. In an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency facility. Our network of 24-hour emergency care locations is listed here. 24-hour emergency care locations Sunnyside Rd Market St Mt.
