Memory Loss
Workplace injuries can be incredibly serious, especially if they affect the head or brain. Head and brain injuries have the potential to result in long-term, life-changing injuries, and incredible amounts of pain and suffering. Depending on the injury, a worker who suffers a brain injury may also experience either short-term or long-term memory loss.
If you suffered a brain injury at work that has affected your memory, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits to help pay for medical bills and other related expenses. To learn more about filing for these benefits, or for help filing an appeal if your initial claim was rejected, contact a Philadelphia workers’ compensation attorney from Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., today at 215-238-1130.
Consequences of Memory Loss
Memory loss can greatly affect all areas of your life including your professional opportunities and relationships with your loved ones. While memory loss can take many different forms, many people with memory loss experience:
- Getting lost frequently
- General feeling of confusion
- Forgetting important dates
- Inability to stay alert
If you have suffered any degree of memory loss because of a work-related injury, your quality of life could decrease dramatically. While workers’ compensation benefits may not be able to erase the trauma of your accident, they may be able to help you deal with your financial losses in the aftermath.
