Join the Brain Injury Association of Arizona for a deep dive into returning to work after brain injury. We’ll examine everything from practical tips like time management strategies to less obvious aspects like obtaining your medical clearance.
This seminar is two days. The first day will extensively look into how to honestly assess your own work readiness from the physical and mental viewpoint. The second day will examine practical strategies and tools to navigate daily work life, like using assistive technology, goal setting and navigating interpersonal relations as you build your own return-to-work toolkit.
