What would leave help you do?

This helps connect the requested time away from work with a treatment and recovery plan.

If leave is approved, what do you hope that time will help you do? Select all that apply.
If known, what treatment do you expect during leave?
This form helps me prepare for your appointment but does not determine whether leave will be recommended. If another clinician is providing most of the treatment related to your leave request, that clinician may be better positioned to complete some or all of the paperwork.
