Life Care Plans are needed when a serious injury or catastrophic illness occurs that will result in the need for medical or vocational services for an individual for the remainder of their lifetime. Our Life Care Planners conduct extensive research to determine the care, equipment, and services that an individual will require for optimal independence, health, and safety.
Cost of Future Care Analysis is similar to a Life Care Plan in its evaluation of ramifications of a serious injury or catastrophic illness. Cost of Future Care Analysis are valuable for settlement discussions but are not admissible evidence in a court of law.
Vocational Opinions are derived from an evaluation process employed by Rehabilitation Counselors that determines how impairments resulting from an injury or disability will affect employability, earning capacity, and rehabilitation potential. A Vocational Opinion is valuable in employment matters involving disability, discrimination, and wrongful termination as well as spousal earning capacity in divorce matters.
Employability analysis is an assessment of residual employment potential following a work related or catastrophic injury. The assessment is completed by a file review of background information including medical reports. The report is medical opinion specific and will identify local job market opportunities, if residual employment is identified.
