A nurse’s assistant was exposed to repetitive bending and lifting of patients during her employment, sometimes as heavy as 300 lbs., resulting in right shoulder pain. Three years later, she was assisting several nurses with a seriously ill patient when she felt cracking and popping in both shoulders. Because of her history of injuries Our Team was able to secure an award of $115,442 on behalf of her employer, and lifetime benefits from the Second Injury Fund.
