Introduction to vocational rehabilitation interventions for people with neurological conditions 2026

Facilitated by the UCLH vocational rehabilitation multidisciplinary team, this workshop will provide taught presentations, practical workshops and interactive discussions that address the following areas:

• Review the evidence base to support practice, defining vocational rehabilitation, interventions and efficacy.
• Consider relevant legislation and government drivers to support work as a health outcome and understand how the Equality Act (2010) may help people with disabilities in the workplace.
• Use of case studies and application of the biopsychosocial model to assess and manage neurological conditions within the context of work.
• Consider ‘invisible’ and ‘subtle’ disabilities (cognitive, cognitive communication disorder, mood disturbance and fatigue difficulties) and how these impact on work.
• Gain practical tips on identifying, communicating and negotiating reasonable adjustments with employers.

This course is well suited to those supporting people with complex neurological conditions.
