“…In contrast, their perceived level of preparedness for these competencies ranged from little to very high preparation, with the LMS item receiving the lowest ratings on both scales. This finding is consistent with Benshoff et al's (2008) reporting on the greater need for attention to rehabilitation counselor preparation in this area of practice.…”

“…Leahy et al's (2003) first report of LMS did not include how CRCs rated their preparedness for the competency. Since the 2002 role and function study, literature suggest that LMS is an area of rehabilitation counselor education and training that needs greater attention for graduate student preparation (Benshoff, Robertson, Davis, & Koch, 2008;Schultz & Brooks, 2003).…”

The purpose of this study was to explore certified rehabilitation counselors’ (CRCs’) importance of and preparedness in the labor market survey (LMS) competency through data collected by theKnowledge Validation Inventory-Revised(KVI-R) instrument used by the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification’s (CRCC) 2011 role and function study (CCRC, 2011b; Leahy, Chan, Sung, & Kim, 2011). LMS is a primary data collection method for gathering occupational and labor market information. Thus, this competency was examined because of its importance in the areas of rehabilitation counseling where this data is usually applied—transferable skills analysis, vocational decision making, job development and placement, and forensics. In this ex post facto secondary analysis, the single largest group of CRCs found LMS to beverytoextremely importantbut also reported onlymoderate preparednessto perform the function. Significant differences were found by geographical location, particularly between the Mid and South Atlantic, and in experience. Discussion, conclusions, implications, and areas for further research are addressed.

“…The debate over consolidation has continued in the literature since the special issue (Benshoff et al, 2008;Emener & Cottone, 1989;Field & Emener, 1982;Irons, 1989;Leahy et al, 2011;Leahy & Tarvydas, 2001;McCarthy, 2020;Nerlich et al, 2022;Patterson, 2009;Peterson et al, 2006). In fact, at the turn of the century, ARCA and NRCA appeared like they would consolidate into one professional association representing rehabilitation counselors from all the practice settings (Leahy et al, 2011;Leahy & Tarvydas, 2001).…”

Most professions are represented by one unified association, but not rehabilitation counseling. From its earliest years of professionalization, rehabilitation counseling has been represented by multiple associations. Initially, representing the discipline through multiple associations was deemed necessary to capture nuanced differences within the field. However, the existence of multiple associations has come under increasing scrutiny in the face of declining membership and a changing professional and political landscape. The lively debates of the 1970s and 1980s have more recently devolved into what seems to be an apathy induced stalemate on this issue of consolidation. The primary aim of this article is to revitalize a conversation about the future of rehabilitation counseling associations by assessing professionals’ perspectives on consolidation. Data from 2,608 rehabilitation counseling professionals indicated that the majority of participants either favored consolidating into a single association or were unsure of their choice. Fewer than 7% of respondents opposed consolidation. We conclude the article with a brief discussion of actions that are supported by the research.

“…Due to the consequential nature of TBI, returning to work after injury is often a challenge [20] , [26] , [27] , [29] , [38] , [57] . Failure to return to work can lead to poor psychosocial outcomes such as decreased community integration and decreased financial independence [27] , [54] , [55] , [57] . These factors are of particular importance to Veterans with mTBI when they return from duty and attempt to reintegrate into civilian life.…”

ObjectiveThe purpose of this pilot study is 1) to develop an annotation schema and a training set of annotated notes to support the future development of a natural language processing (NLP) system to automatically extract employment information, and 2) to determine if information about employment status, goals and work-related challenges reported by service members and Veterans with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and post-deployment stress can be identified in the Electronic Health Record (EHR).DesignRetrospective cohort study using data from selected progress notes stored in the EHR.SettingPost-deployment Rehabilitation and Evaluation Program (PREP), an in-patient rehabilitation program for Veterans with TBI at the James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital in Tampa, Florida.ParticipantsService members and Veterans with TBI who participated in the PREP program (N = 60).Main Outcome MeasuresDocumentation of employment status, goals, and work-related challenges reported by service members and recorded in the EHR.ResultsTwo hundred notes were examined and unique vocational information was found indicating a variety of self-reported employment challenges. Current employment status and future vocational goals along with information about cognitive, physical, and behavioral symptoms that may affect return-to-work were extracted from the EHR. The annotation schema developed for this study provides an excellent tool upon which NLP studies can be developed.ConclusionsInformation related to employment status and vocational history is stored in text notes in the EHR system. Information stored in text does not lend itself to easy extraction or summarization for research and rehabilitation planning purposes. Development of NLP systems to automatically extract text-based employment information provides data that may improve the understanding and measurement of employment in this important cohort.
