Project SEARCH at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center provides a comprehensive approach to employment, job retention and career advancement for individuals with disabilities.
Serving as a single point of entry, the Adult Employment Program coordinates job development and agency referrals with human resource needs. Our goal is to match qualified employees with open positions in a variety of settings. We provide on-the-job support, such as job coaching, adaptations and accommodations, final task definitions and travel training. Our on-site job-retention staff creates a unique support system where people with disabilities can successfully maintain employment and advance in their chosen careers.
Employment Program staff members perform these functions prior to job placement:
- Identify open position(s)
- Perform job analysis / identification of essential functions
- Match jobs to qualified candidate
- Identify and implement accommodations and adaptations
- Coordinate job coaching during initial phases of employment
- Adapt orientation for new employees, co-workers and supervisors
- Provide retention and career advancement opportunities
