December 2005 Notes from Jayne and Karen
Job & Career Services (JACS) Program
The National Rehabilitation Hospital encourages our clients with a disability to “Take Control of Your Future” with the Job and Career Services (JACS) Program. The program will cover everything from setting a job goal to managing the transition back to work in a supportive and professionally facilitated group environment.
At $400 for up to 8 sessions, the JACS program is a highly cost-effective supplement to private vocational work, or can be used pre-MMI while your client is still actively involved in the functional restoration process. For more information, contact Marion Levine, M.Ed., CRC, at 202.877.1198.
SPINE IN BALANCE CLASS
This class gets right to the point with a no-nonsense approach to taking responsibility for your body and your movements. Everyone can make the choice to say ‘NAH’ to back pain.

A physical therapy evaluation is required prior to class participation. Not sure your clients are getting the most out of their therapy experience? Have an experienced NRH therapist take a look and give you an opinion – not to mention that your patients will love you for sending them to the class. It really is that terrific of an experience!
