Company Nurse Injury Hotline
This program is available 24 hours per day, seven days per week. When you encounter a workplace injury, the manager and injured employee will call the Company Nurse Hotline as soon as possible after the injury/incident occurs. Here’s how it works:
- If the injury is an emergency call, 911.
- The injured worker will contact their supervisor if it’s not a medical emergency.
- The injured worker will report the incident to their immediate supervisor and their supervisor will instruct them to call the Company Nurse at 1-877-518-6702 and provide search code: LBCCD. If the supervisor is unavailable, the employee can call the Company Nurse directly.
- An injury Care Coordinator records the injury and incident information.
- After speaking to the Care Coordinator, the call will be transferred to a registered nurse to determine what kind of treatment, if any, is necessary for the injured employee based on their conversation.
Once the employee receives telephonic first aid advice from a registered nurse or before they go to the clinic the supervisor will provide the Workers’ Compensation incident forms to be filled out and sent back to Iliana Nkila at inkila@lbcc.edu. The forms can be found at LBCC Forms Home.
