    Recognizing reassignment is an accommodation of last resort

    The purpose of such language is to indicate that the range of reasonable accommodations is broad and that its contours are clarified by, but not limited to, the specifically enumerated items. See EEOC v. St. Joseph's Hosp., Inc. , 842 F.3d 1333, 1345 & 1345 n.5 (11th Cir. 2016). It is also to suggest that what counts as a reasonable accommodation is not an a priori matter but one that is sensitive to the particular circumstances of the case.

    While the ADA provides that a reasonable accommodation may include reassignment, 42 U.S.C. § 12111(9)(B), the Eleventh Circuit has stated that “[t]he ADA does not say or imply that reassignment is always reasonable.” United States Equal Employment Opportunity Comm'n v. St. Joseph's Hosp., Inc., 842 F.3d 1333, 1345 (11th Cir. 2016). Instead, “reassignment will be reasonable in some circumstances but not in others
