Purpose: The purposes of this study were to (i) describe the lived experiences of participating in a Singaporean vocational rehabilitation (VR) program among individuals with stroke and spinal cord injury and (ii) identify salient features of the program that facilitated their return-to-work process.
Materials And Methods: This was a qualitative phenomenological study. Participants were invited to complete an interview about their return-to-work process after acquiring a disability vis-à-vis their participation in a local VR program. The qualitative data were analyzed inductively.
Results: Twenty-four middle-aged participants with a stroke or spinal cord injury completed the interviews. The participants' experiences with the local VR program were largely positive. Several key features of the VR program were identified. These were: (i) providing a multi-disciplinary and individualized program; (ii) building positive collaborations between service providers and participants; and (iii) supporting personal growth among participants.
Conclusion: The Singaporean VR program demonstrated internationally recommended best practices. These best practices were beneficial for the participants' return-to-work process, as reflected by their positive feedback about the program. Our study emphasizes the need for comprehensive and evidence-based VR programs to meet the complex needs of individuals with disabilities who want to return to work.Implications for rehabilitationMulti- or inter-disciplinary care services are needed in vocational rehabilitation (VR) programs to support the complex return-to-work process of clients.VR programs should have the capacity to provide client-centered care as their clients may experience diverse, yet unique challenges during their return-to-work processVR service providers play a crucial role in engaging and motivating their clients throughout the program to achieve their return-to-work goalsVR service providers should address concurrent or future concerns that could impact on their clients' ability to return to or remain at work.
