If you have a serious injury

Having sustained a serious injury, an important step is to appreciate its impact and consequences.

Understanding your injury and being aware of what the treatment plan entails can give you a greater sense of control and help deal with any anxiety.

And depending on the extent of your injury, you may need:

• time off work
• to be aware of rights to privacy and job security
• a recovery roadmap
• help with costs
• legal support if compensation or insurance claims need sorting
