Vocational rehabilitation is to assist an injured individual with their medical needs. Federal and state laws for vocational rehabilitation services, professional development and special projects and demonstration, equal opportunity employment for individuals with disabilities, independent living services and centers for independent living, and other services are available but often difficult to obtain due to the complexity of applying for these programs.
Our mediators and nurse case managers are available to sit down with the party to ensure that the proper rehabilitation services are being provided. Employers/Insurers do not wish to pay for unnecessary rehabilitation needs, yet injured workers wish to be provided with all available programs to assist them in maintaining the highest standard of living available to them.
