Her claims examiner referred her case to behavioral health services.<\/p>\r\n<br>\r\n<p>The behavioral health specialist reached out to Danielle and she agreed to discuss her difficulties with the prospect of returning to work. The specialist located a psychologist and psychiatrist who had experience with PTSD treatment and workers\u2019 compensation cases for Danielle.

Several bullets hit her bus, but fortunately neither Katie nor her passengers were physically injured. This incident led to Katie filing her third mental stress claim in four years. Within two days after the claim was reported, one of our behavioral health specialists reached out to Katie to offer support and assistance with a referral to a trauma therapist in her area. During that initial call, the specialist also provided tips and suggestions on self-care to address sleep difficulties that she was having since the incident.<\/p>\r\n<br>\r\n<p>During Katie\u2019s treatment, the behavioral health specialist addressed return to work planning with her treatment provider. The specialist called Katie throughout her recovery to check in, provide ongoing encouragement and answer questions.
