Quick Tip
Recovering from an illness or injury?
When you need time away from work to recover, be sure to make an appointment with a Sandia medical case manager (MCM).
Your MCM will help you understand and access available resources, both within Sandia and in the community, to meet your health goals and return to work safely and efficiently.
