Étape 4 sur 10 de la préparation au retour au travail :
Après avoir évalué les obstacles et les facilitateurs au retour au travail à l’aide du Modèle de réadaptation professionnelle de la première étape, avoir évalué les capacités fonctionnelles à l’étape 2 et les avoir comparé aux exigences du travail à l’étape 3, l’une des prochaines étapes consiste à aider le survivant du cancer à identifier et à accéder à des formes de soutiens et à des ressources utiles. Cela pourrait inclure de fournir des traitements médicaux, de gestion des symptômes, de réadaptation (qui peut inclure un traitement psychologique si nécessaire) et/ou de référer le survivant du cancer vers d’autres professionnels (spécialisés dans la gestion de la douleur et des symptômes, le soutien psychologique, la formation professionnelle et le travail social) pour aider à surmonter ces défis.
