Fractures and Broken Bones

Falls can lead to fractures in the wrists, arms, hips, or legs. This is particularly common among older individuals. Hip fractures are prevalent and can have severe consequences for older adults.

Sprain or Strain

Twisting or stretching during a fall can cause sprained ligaments or strained muscles. Such injuries usually affect the ankles and wrists.

Head Injuries

Falls can cause head trauma. This can range from minor concussions to more severe traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). Even a insignificant fall can cause significant head injuries.

Back and Spinal Cord Injuries

Landing on the back can lead to spinal cord injuries. This can cause chronic pain, paralysis, or other long-term complications.

Soft Tissue Injuries

Bruises, cuts, abrasions, and contusions are common, especially when falling on hard surfaces:

Dislocations

Falls can displace joints, leading to dislocations. For example, in the shoulder or hip.

The problem that employees often face is knowing what to do on workers’ comp for slip and fall injuries afterwards.
