Psychological morbidity and return to work after injury: multicentre cohort study (2017)
Journal Article
Kendrick, D., Dhiman, P., Kellezi, B., Coupland, C., Whitehead, J., Beckett, K., …Morriss, R. (in press). Psychological morbidity and return to work after injury: multicentre cohort study. British Journal of General Practice, https://doi.org/10.3399/bjgp17X691673

Background: The benefits of work for physical, psychological and financial wellbeing are well documented. Return to work (RTW) after unintentional injury is often delayed, and psychological morbidity may contribute to this delay. The impact of psycho...
