Living Life with a New York Railroad Amputation Injury

Adjusting to life after a serious railroad injury can be difficult. If your injury involved an amputation, then the adjustment may be even more challenging. You may face new obstacles in your daily life and a loss of income. However, you are not helpless. A New York FELA attorney can help get you the resources that you need to continue living your life on your terms after a railroad amputation injury.

Supports and Services After an Amputation

As you well know, your injury is unique. Nobody else is suffering from quite the same physical and emotional injuries. That said, there are some common supports and services that many people find useful after an amputation. Some of those services include:
  • Medical care, which may be necessary to prevent infections and to maintain your health after surgery.
  • Physical therapy to help you function to the best of your ability.
  • Prosthesis to replace your missing limb.
  • Nursing care, which may be required for a time after surgery or indefinitely.
  • Emotional support, some amputees find support groups or individual counseling to be helpful, in addition to the support of their family and friends.
  • Housekeeping, or an assistant to help with household tasks, errands and driving.

Many of these services and supports may improve your life, but at a cost. They are expensive.
