Work Injury Care & Support
A workplace injury, whether it happened suddenly or built up over time, affects a lot more than just your body. Lost income, uncertainty about your job, and navigating WorkCover ACT or Comcare paperwork on top of recovery is a lot to deal with. At Smith St Medical Centre Canberra, our GPs are here to take some of that weight off, from your first appointment through to getting back on the job safely.
We see a wide range of work-related conditions: lumbar and back injuries, neck and shoulder strain, carpal tunnel and repetitive strain injuries from desk work, slips and falls on site, manual handling injuries, and psychological conditions like work-related stress, burnout, and adjustment disorder.
Whether you work in construction, public service, healthcare, retail, or an office environment, we’ll make sure the medical side is handled clearly and promptly. We also help with capacity for work certificates, clinical documentation, and any coordination your Comcare or workers’ compensation claim requires.
Recovery Support That Works
Getting back to work isn’t just about the initial treatment. It’s about making sure you’re actually ready, and that everyone involved has what they need. Our Canberra GPs support ACT workers through return-to-work planning, suitable duties assessments, and regular progress reviews from the first injury consult to full clearance.
