I was in an accident and got disabled. What should I do now?

For your working life, you’ve operated like everyone else. But what happens when you have a sudden disability -- like a spinal cord or brain injury? To what extent can you -- or should you -- modify your work? For many people, returning to a familiar workplace -- with all its human connections -- is a crucial part of recovery. Consultation with a wide range of professionals, from physical rehabilitation specialists to mental health therapists, as well as with supervisors and colleagues, can smooth the way back to a successful return.
