  Communicating the demands of the job to the treating doctor
How do you describe a job so the treating doctor will understand the demands of the job? A description need to be clear, easy to understand, and make it easy for the doc to say "Yes, that's a good job for Joe to get back to." This example provides a simple outline of a job description.
