Brafford v. Brafford''s Construction Co.3/18/1997 ion omitted). We note that in its Opinion and Award, the Commission did not state that plaintiff was completely disabled; rather, it found that his brain injuries remained such that he was unable to return to his regular job as a roofer :
As a result of the compensable injury by accident, plaintiff is unable to return to his regular job and defendants have not offered him suitable work. Plaintiff is in need of vocational assistance in order to conduct a meaningful search for employment which is suitable to his capacity. Plaintiff's capacity shall be determined by an evaluation as Ordered herein. (Emphasis added).
Moreover, the Commission's determination that plaintiff is still disabled is supported by the written recommendation of Dr. John Camp, defendants' medical expert, who recommended that while plaintiff was able to return to full work-related duties, he not be allowed to work at unprotected heights, on a ladder, or on the roofs themselves. Since there is competent evidence to support this finding, we affirm the Commission's determination.
Affirmed.
Chief Judge ARNOLD and Judge COZORT concur.
