Workers Comp Claims in Higgins, Canberra
Injured at work in Higgins? Talk to us.
Call WorkCover Hub and we line up the doctor, the physiotherapist and the psychologist for you, and keep them in step. That matters when a certificate needs updating and the doctor who wrote it needs to know how rehabilitation is actually going. For Higgins workers, that first visit happens face to face, since a certificate cannot be written without an examination. Later check-ins are easier by telehealth.
Working in Higgins
Higgins is a late 1960s Belconnen suburb bordered by Holt, Latham, Florey and Scullin. Its old local supermarket has shut and its schools have closed, so the suburb is purely residential and daily shopping happens at the Kippax group centre in Holt. Residents work in retail and food outlets around Kippax, in aged care and health services nearby, and in Commonwealth offices reached through Belconnen.
