About WorkcoverVictim
I was assaulted by a large patient whilst working as a nurse . I underwent numerous major shoulder reconstructions and suffered near fatal complications. I am left with an extremely painful and irreparable dominant arm.
This site was born out of my sheer frustration, anger and grief regarding the workcover system where all is not made clear, where the waters are very murky, and when the chips are down, the very people who are responsible for duty of care and support simply choose to ignore you, the injured worker.
I dedicate this site to all injured workers who have been abused by the adversarial workcover compensation system. May they never give up, may they fight like warriors for their legitimate rights, and -most importantly- may they hold onto their dignity, self-respect, self-esteem and sanity; and may they WIN!
Could someone who’s twitter account is being followed by @worksafe_vic please bring this article to their personal attention? They ought to know that this is what spontaneously happens when you turn your back to injured workers.
Workcovervictim did not ask the media (the daily lush) to publish, they CHOSE to publish our article, for which we are tremendously grateful.
Thanks x
