My wife a nurse clipped off her fingertip and now has a dressing and brace

Wait 5 sec.

All the bones are still there as well as most of the finger pad. She got a letter from an orthopedic doctor that said light duty, no more than 10 lbs on the injured hand. She was told by her charge there was no way to accommodate her injury and put on unpaid leave for six weeks. Is there a way she could still wear gloves and wash between patient visits? After six weeks she's still going to at least have a dressing, perhaps not a brace.   submitted by   /u/tallgrasshead [link]   [comments]
