Injury Claims For Nurses & Healthcare Workers In Queensland

Support For Those Who Care For Others

Every shift, you lift, turn & support patients who rely on you. When you’re the one who’s hurt, stepping back from work can feel hard, both financially & emotionally.

If you’ve been injured at work, we’ll look after the legal side so you can focus on your recovery.

Patient Handling Injuries

Lifting, repositioning & transferring patients can cause serious back & shoulder injuries, especially without the right equipment.

Before you pursue any further claim, we’ll assess whether safe handling practices were in place.

Aggression & Violence At Work

Healthcare workers often face aggression from patients or visitors, which can cause both physical & psychological harm.

We’ll show WorkCover the full toll the incident has taken, in body & mind.

Needlestick & Exposure Injuries

A needlestick or exposure to bodily fluids can bring weeks of testing & uncertainty.

We’ll explain what your claim may cover, including medical tests & treatment.

Report Incidents Before Your Next Shift

Healthcare injury claims have strict time limits, and incident reports are easier to complete while the details are clear.

Request Your Free Case Review, & a senior lawyer will reach you within 24 hours to confirm your time limits and explain your next steps.

No Win, No Fee

Rin Kim Law provides No Win, No Fee services for eligible nurse & healthcare worker injury claims. You’ll only pay our professional fees if your case succeeds.

We bear the risk, so you can move forward with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Nurses Claim WorkCover For Back Injuries?

Yes. Back injuries from lifting or moving patients are common & may be covered under WorkCover.

What If A Patient Assaulted Me?

You may be able to claim for both the physical & psychological injuries caused by the assault.

Am I Covered For A Needlestick Injury?

Possibly. WorkCover may cover testing, treatment & any resulting illness or injury.

Can Agency Nurses Make A Claim?

Yes. Agency nurses may claim through their agency, and the host facility may also share responsibility.

What If My Employer Is Self-Insured?

Some private hospital & aged care groups handle injury claims themselves, rather than through WorkCover Queensland. Your core rights are the same as if WorkCover managed your claim, and we can deal with your employer for you.

Can I Claim If I Was Partly At Fault?

WorkCover benefits don’t depend on fault. In a common law claim, damages may be reduced to reflect your share of responsibility.

Do I Need A Lawyer For A Healthcare Injury Claim?

Not necessarily, but legal support can ease the stress while you focus on your recovery.

Do You Offer "No Win, No Fee" For Nurse & Healthcare Worker Injury Claims?

Yes. Rin Kim Law provides No Win, No Fee services for eligible nurse & healthcare worker injury claims. We’ll explain the terms & eligibility before you decide whether to proceed.
