Good news regarding my friend and her ankle. Her ankle was only sprained and her orthopedic allowed her to work. We are both so relieved. Thank you all so very much for all your help.

She injured her ankle outside of work, so she is not eligible for workman's comp. Yes, she does have a follow up appointment.

So, my friend is a nurse and she just got a new job. She is in her second week of training, so she is not technically hired yet. She hurt her ankle badly yesterday and visited an orthopedic today to get her ankle x-rayed. The orthopedic told her she couldn't work until further notice. She's really worried she will lose this job. She really can't afford to lose this job she waited so long to get. She can't afford have no income. Does anyone think they will fire her since she won't be able to work? Would she legally be allowed to work with a sprained ankle? I apologize for being ignorant in this matter,". I'm not even a nurse. Someone please give me some ideas or answers. We are both very worried. Any input at all will be greatly appreciated. Any input will be so appreciated that I could not possibly express in worthy words. Thank you in advance.
