Service area

Vocational rehabilitation across Las Vegas, Clark County and Nevada

Our office sits on South Buffalo Drive in southwest Las Vegas, minutes from the 215 and a short drive from the Strip corridor, the medical district and the North Las Vegas distribution parks. We meet injured workers where they live and work, and we know the Las Vegas labor market because our team was raised in it. A senior case manager carries files in both Southern and Northern Nevada, and under NRS 616C.580 services may extend to eligible workers living within fifty miles of the Nevada border.

Why referral sources choose VRS

Why Nevada adjusters choose a Las Vegas voc rehab firm

We work for the carriers, TPAs, self-insured employers and defense counsel who handle Nevada claims. What they get is an assessment that survives review, a plan the claimant will actually finish, and a counselor who returns the call.

Who we serve

They see the lights. We see who turns them on.

Las Vegas is a workforce before it is a destination. When one of those workers is hurt, the loss is not abstract — it is a twenty-pound lifting restriction that ends the only trade they have ever had.

Our CEO, Jorge Sanchez, grew up inside that workforce. His mother was a casino porter at The Mirage for more than 20 years. His father came to this country with a civil engineering degree, set it aside, and worked as a bus person at the Stardust before opening a transmission shop he ran for 15 years. “Behind the dazzling lights are thousands of hardworking people who make this city run every single day.”

How a Las Vegas file moves from restriction to placement

Choose a Las Vegas occupation to see the transferable skills analysis we run when permanent restrictions rule out the job of injury.

Job of injury — physical demands

        Plan outcome

        Illustrative composites drawn from occupations common to this valley. Every real assessment is built on the individual claimant's medical restrictions, work history, aptitudes and interests.

        Nevada return-to-work priorities

        The statute sets the order. We work it from the top down.

        Under NRS 616C.530 an insurer follows a fixed priority sequence in returning an injured employee to work. Retraining is the last rung, not the first — and every rung above it costs the file less. Select a step to expand.

        We work this ladder from the top down on every file.

        Program length reference

        What the impairment rating means for program length

        Since AB 128 took effect on July 1, 2019, the maximum length of a vocational rehabilitation program is keyed to the percentage of permanent partial disability.

        9 months

        Typical plan shape
        Job placement assistance
        NRS 616C.555(2)
        Where the written assessment finds existing marketable skills, the plan consists of job placement assistance only, aimed where practicable at a position paying at least 80% of the pre-injury gross wage, and capped at six months from notification. Maintenance during plan development is limited to 60 days under NAC 616C.577(3). Programs may be extended under NRS 616C.560, and a lump sum in lieu of services cannot be offered below 55% under NRS 616C.595.

        A reference tool, not a determination. Eligibility is governed by NRS 616C.590 and the written assessment required under NRS 616C.550.
