For Clinics & Nurse Navigators
For Oncology Clinics, Nurse Navigators & Social Workers
A 100% free, privacy-first return-to-work toolkit you can confidently hand to cancer survivors navigating ADA accommodations, FMLA leave, treatment fatigue, and employer conversations.
What It Is
A Practical Workplace Bridge for Survivorship Care Plans
Oncology nurse navigators and social workers are routinely asked questions that fall between clinical care and HR policy: “How do I ask for intermittent FMLA?” “What accommodations help with chemo brain?” “Do I have to tell my boss I had cancer?” Return to Work Navigator gives your patients an immediate, self-guided toolkit to answer those questions with confidence.
3-step guided letter builder
ADA Accommodation Letter Generator
Helps patients translate post-treatment limitations (fatigue, neuropathy, cognitive fog, oncology follow-ups) into a formal, ADA-aligned accommodation request letter they can review with their care team or HR.
Federal & 50-state protections
FMLA, ADA & State Leave Rights Hub
Plain-language guides and an interactive advisor covering intermittent FMLA leave, reasonable ADA accommodations, COBRA health insurance continuation, and state paid medical leave across all 50 U.S. states.
Gradual re-entry templates
Phased Return-to-Work Schedule Planner
Lets survivors map out a realistic week-by-week ramp-up schedule (e.g., part-time hours, mid-week rest days, hybrid telework) and export a clean PDF summary to bring to oncology clearance appointments.
Daily tracking & coping guides
Fatigue, Chemo Brain & Energy Pacing
Evidence-informed strategies and daily energy logs that help patients identify peak focus windows, prevent afternoon crashes, and communicate functional needs to clinicians.
Scripts that protect privacy
Workplace Disclosure & HR Email Toolkit
Step-by-step disclosure guidance explaining how patients can request medical accommodations without revealing their diagnosis to coworkers or direct supervisors, paired with copy-ready email templates.
On-demand guidance between visits
24/7 AI Return-to-Work Coach & Peer Hub
Gives survivors a supportive sounding board to rehearse supervisor conversations, prepare HR meeting talking points, and connect with peers in similar industries.
Zero Cost. Zero Paywalls. No Account Required to Use Core Tools.

Every guide, ADA accommodation letter generator, printable PDF worksheet, state legal directory, and AI coaching resource on Return to Work Navigator is completely free for survivors and clinics — with no paid tiers, no credit cards, and no gated downloads.
How to Refer
Three Frictionless Ways to Share With Patients

2. Print the 1-Page Patient Handout (with QR Code)
Keep a printed stack in infusion suites, radiation waiting areas, or social work offices so patients can scan the QR code with their phone camera.
Built-In Scannable QR Code
Opens return-to-work-navigator.org directly on the patient's phone — no typing required.
3. Direct Link by Patient Concern

Our Privacy & Clinical Scope Stance
Built to Protect Survivor Confidentiality From Day One
Fear of workplace stigma or accidental disclosure is the #1 reason cancer survivors hesitate to use online career tools. You can refer patients with confidence knowing our architecture minimizes data collection by default.
Anonymous Browsing & Letter Drafting
Patients can read every legal and wellness guide, generate customized ADA workplace accommodation letters, and export PDF meeting worksheets without creating an account or entering their name.
Never Sold or Shared With Employers or Insurers
We never sell, rent, or disclose patient data to employers, human resources departments, health or disability insurers, data brokers, or advertisers. Period.
Strict Per-User Isolation for Saved Logs
If a survivor chooses to create an optional account to track daily energy, save checklist milestones, or chat with the AI Coach, their records are protected by strict Row-Level Security (RLS) so only they can view them.
1-Click Patient Data Export & Permanent Deletion
Patients own their information. At any time from their Profile page, a user can export their logs to share with their care team or permanently delete their account and all associated data.
Clear Clinical & Legal Boundaries: Return to Work Navigator provides educational workplace, accommodation, and communication guidance. It does not provide medical advice, clinical diagnosis, or formal legal representation, and consistently prompts patients to review return-to-work timelines and physical restrictions with their oncology care team.
