Vocational Assessments for people with an Acquired Brian Injury in the Border,
Midlands & Western Region.
Work4you is a free vocational assessment service for individuals and employers affected by a brain injury. It is the first community based neuro-assessment service of its kind in Ireland and will provide practical assistance and real hope for people with an acquired brain injury who are either struggling to hold on to their existing job or aiming to return to education, training, or employment. Key elements of the service are:
- Holistic Interviews
- Vocational Criterion Work Sample Assessments
- Workplace assessments
- Personal Progression Plans
- Work Sample Assessments
Work4you participants, and in many cases their families, will be at the heart of the new service. The service has been set up by ABI Ireland, thanks to the financial investment of the Department of Social Protection and the European Social Fund under the Disability Activation Project (DACT).
How do I avail of the service?
People with an acquired brain injury may refer themselves to Work4you and we are working to raise awareness of the Work4you service so that families as well as state agencies, community organisations and employers will be aware of it and become a strong referral source.
