	Description:		Navigating Workplace Accidents For K - 12 Schools with Debra Spamer and Tom Strasburger. On this week’s podcast we have Debra Spamer and Tom Strasburger discussing ways to implement more effective injury management programs within your school systems. Opportunities to address workplace accident challenges When an incident does arise there are a lot of things to think about/factor in as workplace accidents usually aren’t a common thing that you would face on a day to day basis. First steps in addressing the challenge of a workplace accident is having a plan - knowing what your state and district policies/procedures are is very important so the right individuals take the right steps immediately. Defined injury reporting and triage process Paperwork procedure compliance/immediacy of reporting Injured worker receives impartial and compassionate medical attention Cause of injury: hazard or common place Initiative and time to retrain the injured employee with follow up on their outside care/steps to avoid future accidents If you haven’t done so already - take time to see if there are services or third parties in your district/city that can streamline and organize each step that needs to be taken care of for you, professionally and immediately once an accident has taken place.
