I HAVE A BRAIN INJURY. FINDING A JOB WHEN YOU HAVE A BRAIN INJURY. ​ Having a job provides us with feelings of self-worth, responsibility and independence. It nurtures our sense of accomplishment. ​ Common Challenges . ​Asking for accommodations Over-Cautious employers Mixed or very short working schedules Making money and losing essential support services Bringing your personal assistant Maintaining concentration and attention. Quick or extreme fatigue Speech Memory loss Social relationships Emotional Behavioral Physical abilities Limited vision ​ Assessing Your Abilities and Skills. Think about factors in the workplace that will negatively affect your condition. Some conditions may make you sensitive to certain environmental conditions, such as temperature extremes or certain substances in the workplace. For example, you may have respiratory issues that are aggravated by humidity in the air or dust and fumes. Or you may have hearing issues that are irritated by noise or vibrations from moving machinery. You may also have discomfort working at heights or with certain odors. Identifying your comfort levels with these factors will ensure you only pursue work positions that will suit your condition and not harm you in any way. ​ ​ Use a Variety of Job-Seeking Techniques Personal contacts Classified ads Campus job-placement services Job-placement assistance through temp agencies Disability advocacy or support groups Vocational rehabilitation agencies Take advantage of the Internet When you apply for a position, FOCUS on your qualifications and abilities. ​ ​ Do Your Homework First. Research the company you're applying to. Check with disability advocacy groups to see if the company has a good reputation for hiring, training and promoting workers with disabilities. Find out their strengths and weaknesses. Many corporations' Web sites provide lots of information Know how your background and experience fit with the company. Be prepared to discuss why your strengths. Being familiar with the company, shows you're motivated to work for them. ​ ​ Know What Technologies Can Help You Work Effectively Your skills may be maximized through assistive technology. Speech recognition software StickyKeys Auto-correct, for instance Adjusting a monitor's resolution can make big difference when reading small print easier for people with limited vision. ​ Decide When to Disclose Your Disability Even though federal law states you aren't required to reveal your disability, unless it relates to completing essential job functions, consider being open on this subject. If you volunteer this information, the employer may see you as a strong and confident person. Depending on the circumstances, you could describe your limitations in a resume, cover letter, or job application. If you need a special schedule make this clear on your application, employers dislike being misled. Identify your physical abilities. Consider how your condition affects your ability to do certain work-related activities like sitting, standing, walking, lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling. ​ Make the Interview Easy for the Employer If you are bringing an interpreter, wheelchair, guide dog, etc. notify your interviewers so they can prepare in advance. As needed, inquire about accessible entrances to the building and the best route once inside to get to your interview . ​ Role-Play If your disability makes you do certain tasks differently, are you comfortable explaining how you will perform the job? Try role-playing the situation with a trusted friend, team member or family member. Practice explaining how you will perform your job and what accommodations, if any, you need. Describe how the company would benefit from hiring you. ​ Dress Appropriately Unless specifically encouraged to dress casually, follow the universal code about what to wear to an interview: Dress business casual. For people with limited mobility, the process of dressing for a job interview can be quite a challenge, but it's worth it. ​ Bring Samples of Your Work and Extra Resumes A clean, printed resume. Ask friends and family to write short references about your abilities. Your employer may want to know how well you maintain concentration and attention in the workplace, and your ability to understand, remember and carry out instructions. Samples allow you to illustrate your skills with specific examples. ​ Anticipate and Address Potential Concerns Directly You know some people have fears and prejudices about workers with disabilities, even when they don't express these attitudes directly. If you want the job, you must allay these concerns. Using examples from your own life or prior work experience, discuss how you accomplish activities that challenge you, like getting around the workplace, communicating with others, using equipment and so forth. ​ Handle Illegal Interview Questions with Grace The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 made it illegal for employers to ask about medical history during an interview. If you are asked an inappropriate question, respond diplomatically. Try: "Nothing in my personal life will keep me from doing an outstanding job in this position." This answer should satisfy a prospective employer's concerns about your ability to get the job done. ​ Start identifying your career path.

एमएफपी कार्यक्रम क्या है और यह क्या करता है? एमएफपी कार्यक्रम किसी व्यक्ति को चिकित्सा सुविधा से बाहर निकलने के लिए धन और व्यवस्था करने में मदद करता है। यह आवास, आवश्यक वस्तुओं, चिकित्सा उपकरणों और अस्थायी रूप से घर में देखभाल करने वालों की व्यवस्था करने में मदद करता है। एमएफपी एक संघीय प्रदर्शन अनुदान है, जिसे मेडिकेयर और मेडिकेड सेवा केंद्रों से सीटी सामाजिक सेवा विभाग द्वारा प्राप्त किया जाता है। इसे दीर्घकालिक देखभाल प्रणाली को पुनर्संतुलित करने में मदद करने के लिए प्रदान किया गया था ताकि व्यक्तियों को इस बारे में अधिकतम स्वतंत्रता और पसंद की स्वतंत्रता हो कि वे कहाँ रहते हैं और देखभाल और सेवाएँ प्राप्त करते हैं। यह कार्यक्रम उन लोगों को बेहतर सामुदायिक सेवाएँ और सहायता प्रदान करके वर्तमान कार्यक्रमों पर आधारित है, जिन्होंने कम से कम तीन महीने तक नर्सिंग सुविधाओं में निवास किया है। एमएफपी के तहत, सीटी को समुदाय में वापस आने वालों के लिए, पाँच वर्षों में नौ मिलियन डॉलर का उन्नत मेडिकेड मैच मिलेगा, जिसमें पहले वर्ष के लिए 50 प्रतिशत के बजाय समुदाय में वापस आने के लिए 75 प्रतिशत लागत की प्रतिपूर्ति की जाएगी। यह संघीय समर्थन मेडिकेड प्राप्तकर्ताओं के लिए अधिक महंगी संस्थागत देखभाल के उपयोग को कम करने के लिए कनेक्टिकट के लिए एक वित्तीय प्रोत्साहन है। यह दृष्टिकोण करदाताओं के लिए अधिक लागत प्रभावी है और इससे वृद्ध वयस्कों और शारीरिक और विकासात्मक विकलांगताओं और मानसिक बीमारी वाले लोगों के जीवन की गुणवत्ता में सुधार होने की उम्मीद है। समुदाय में वापस लौटने वाले लोगों के पास यह विकल्प होता है कि वे कहां रहना चाहते हैं, चाहे वह व्यक्ति का अपना घर हो, परिवार के किसी सदस्य का घर हो, अपार्टमेंट हो या सामूहिक निवास हो। ​ एमएफपी के लक्ष्य ​ घर और समुदाय आधारित सेवाओं पर खर्च की जाने वाली राशि में वृद्धि करें। संस्थाओं की तुलना में समुदाय में दीर्घकालिक सेवाएं प्राप्त करने वाले लोगों का प्रतिशत बढ़ाना। अस्पताल से छुट्टी के बाद देखभाल की आवश्यकता वाले लोगों के लिए नर्सिंग सुविधाओं में अस्पताल से छुट्टी की संख्या कम करना। किसी संस्थान में प्रवेश के पहले तीन महीनों के भीतर लोगों के समुदाय में वापस लौटने की संभावना को बढ़ाना व्यक्तियों को संस्थाओं से निकालकर समुदाय में वापस लाना व्यक्तिगत देखभाल योजनाएँ ज़रूरत के आधार पर बनाई जाती हैं। CCCI संक्रमण समन्वयक सामुदायिक सहायता, सिस्टम नेविगेशन, संसाधनों तक पहुँच और रहने की व्यवस्था के साथ व्यक्तिगत सहायता प्रदान करेंगे। ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community car ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community care supported living ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community car ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community care supported living ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community car ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community care supported living ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community car ABI Resources Connecticut brain injury money follows the person mfp abi waiver program community care supported living 1/43
