So, at the beginning of the year, my mother was off work because she got a diabetic ulcer on the bottom of her foot which ended up getting infected all the way to the bone. She had to get her second toe amputated. She went back to work, (with the doctors okay) and she worked for about a month and a half.
Just recently a man at her work pushed her down then fell on top of her, she works in a nursing home. She reported it and didn't think anything was wrong until four days later when her foot, the same one she had her toe amputated from was swollen. She left work and went to the ER to find out her first metatarsal was broken. It's the bone your big toe kind of attaches to in your foot.
So, she used her own podiatrist instead of the workman's comp doctor.
Does the woman from workman's comp have to be in the room with her during her appointment at all times?
And they told her she was singing for them to have her medical records for this incident and it turns out they got them from the first of the year and there trying to say this is related to the toe amputation. The doctor has told them multiple times this incident has nothing to do with what happened earlier this year. Can they still hold it against her? Should she get a lawyer?
