Specialized Vocational Related Services
Vocational Evaluation. Aptitude, interest, work values, educational
and critical work behaviors are assessed. This vocational
evaluation can assist vocational specialists from the private
and public sector in determining eligibility and appropriateness
of services.
Drivers Assessment, Education and Remediation. A pre-driving
assessment screens for the physical, visual and cognitive skills
necessary for driving. Results of this screening may include
recommendations for a formal driving evaluation. Issues related
to driving safely after an acquired brain injury are also addressed
as needed.
Customized Situational Assessments. Situational assessments
evaluate an individual's ability to perform in a work environment.
A relationship with a local, active business - one that, when
possible, mirrors the clients' pre-existing vocation - is developed
and integrated into the vocational plan.
Vocational Exploration and Counseling Services. Vocational
exploration, labor market research, and counseling services are
used to identify realistic options within the client's realm of
interests and abilities.
