Trabajar en el sector sanitario puede ser una elecci\u00f3n profesional muy satisfactoria. Al igual que otros profesionales sanitarios en Texas, probablemente disfrute cuidando de sus pacientes. Ya conoce algunos de los riesgos asociados al trabajo en un entorno m\u00e9dico, pero esos riesgos a menudo merecen la pena. Sin embargo, \u00bfsab\u00eda que podr\u00eda correr un riesgo de violencia laboral superior a la media?<\/p>\n

Aunque la violencia contra el personal sanitario adopta a veces la forma de abusos verbales por parte de los pacientes y sus familiares, suele manifestarse como violencia f\u00edsica. Las v\u00edctimas de estos actos suelen sufrir heridas f\u00edsicas y emocionales y se ven obligadas a ausentarse del trabajo para recuperarse.<\/p>\n

Los hospitales pueden ser peligrosos para los trabajadores<\/strong><\/p>\n

La Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) define un acto de violencia laboral grave como aquel en el que la v\u00edctima tiene que ausentarse del trabajo. Entre 2002 y 2013, el sector sanitario experiment\u00f3 incidentes graves de violencia en el lugar de trabajo a un ritmo cuatro veces la de otras industrias<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00bfFuncionan las medidas de seguridad?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hospitales, cl\u00ednicas, ambulatorios y otros centros sanitarios deben implantar protocolos de seguridad para proteger mejor a sus empleados. Muchos centros disponen ahora de botones de p\u00e1nico y detectores de metales. A veces, el acceso a las zonas de atenci\u00f3n al paciente est\u00e1 restringido \u00fanicamente a quienes tienen privilegios de acceso.<\/p>\n

Los detectores de metales parecen ser eficaces para retirar armas de las instalaciones m\u00e9dicas. Cuando la Cl\u00ednica Cleveland instal\u00f3 detectores de metales en sus instalaciones, empez\u00f3 a confiscar una cantidad alarmante de armas. Cuchillos, cuchillas de afeitar, c\u00fateres, destornilladores y armas de fuego son algunos de los objetos confiscados con m\u00e1s frecuencia.<\/p>\n

\u00bfHa sido v\u00edctima de violencia laboral?<\/strong><\/p>\n

No todo el mundo entiende que las lesiones por violencia laboral son un tipo de lesi\u00f3n relacionada con el trabajo. Esto significa que las v\u00edctimas pueden solicitar una indemnizaci\u00f3n por sus lesiones. Si su empresa ofrece cobertura de indemnizaci\u00f3n a los trabajadores, es aconsejable que estudie sus opciones.<\/p>\n

Adem\u00e1s, en algunos casos, v\u00edctimas de la violencia laboral<\/a> puede reclamar una indemnizaci\u00f3n directamente a su empleador, generalmente en forma de demanda civil. Si usted tiene facturas m\u00e9dicas persistentes, dolor y sufrimiento y da\u00f1os financieros por tomar tiempo fuera del trabajo, act\u00fae hoy. Un abogado con experiencia puede orientarle en este asunto urgente.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
