Visiting Nurses Ass'n v. Teel

NIMMONS, Judge.

Employer/carrier (E/C) appeal from an order of the deputy commissioner requiring the E/C to “provide claimant with vocational training and education as a laboratory assistant for a period of 26 weeks together with payment of all fees and costs incident to that training.” No request for training as a lab assistant had been made prior to the hearing by either the claimant or her attorney and the E/C had no indication that such would be requested until claimant’s attorney advised the deputy at hearing that the claimant was interested in lab assistant training. We reverse the order.
