It is a “no fault” system An injured employee is entitled to receive medical and compensation benefits no matter who causes the job-related accident

Even if the employee was at fault or partially at fault in causing the injury, he/she will, in most instances, be entitled to benefits. Exceptions - An employee is not entitled to workers’ compensation benefits for injuries that are “purposely self-inflicted.”

Recommendations and Best Practice

1. Cuts and bruises 2. Broken bones 3. Poisoning 4. Burns 5. Suffocation
19
Infants dying from SIDS are more likely to have: used a pillow or soft mattress Infant has been found with nose and mouth completely covered by bedding Sleeping face-down Also increases risk of suffocation, strangulation, and entrapment No pillows or blankets in addition to or instead of mattress under the infant
20
No swaddling of infants Swaddling involves tightly wrapping an infant in a blanket in a way that restricts movement. “There is currently no evidence on the ‘safe way’ to swaddle an infant, and hence caution regarding swaddling should be expressed with caregivers. Infants can become overheated or the swaddling can come loose and entrap the infant.
21
Sleep sacks or wearable blankets can be used, as long as they are the appropriate size and are used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightweight receiving blanket that goes under the arms and across the infants chest; if allowed by licensing.
22
* Appropriate sleep sack: -Arm and neck openings sized appropriately for a safer fit. -Select a material that will not be too warm. -Sleeveless to reduce the risk of overheating. (Room temperature should be comfortable for an adult clothed with lightweight material.) -Inverted zipper for easy changing. -Roomy sack promotes healthy hip development. -Sleepwear may never restrict an infants natural movements. *Never “modify” a sleep sack. All sleepwear must be used in accordance with manufactures instructions.
24
Seizures occur most often after eating and during light sleep. Naptime lighting will allow that all children’s faces are visible at all times. Use natural lighting or small lamps. Since infants do not have specific nap times, the lights in the infant nursery should be on at all times. You must be able to see the children’s face at all times.
