Help Navigating Your Career

If you are living with a Chronic Health Condition, you may find yourself asking:

  • “How will I get or maintain a job?”
  • “What will happen to my benefits?”
  • “How will I work around my doctor appointments?”
  • “Will I be considered for a promotion?”

You may benefit from a more flexible work situation or schedule as you:

  • Manage medical appointments
  • Deal with fatigue and physical or cognitive limitations
  • Find need for higher than normal sick days, or sick-leave
  • See productivity loss and/or worry of job loss
  • Realize need for work accommodations or adaptions

With HireAbility Vermont, you will have access to free services and programs that inspire progress. You and your counselor will set a plan and determine which services and support will be most useful for you. We can work with your employer to accommodate your unique needs, or we can guide you on exploring a new career path.
