After an accident or major illness, Industrial Rehabilitaton may be needed  for your return to work or to find a new vocation.

A functional capacity evaluation (FCE) may be needed.  This can be performed by a physical or occupational therapist.

The FCE looks at your medical history and mimics common work activities, such as:

• Crawling through small spaces
• Climbing ladders
• Lifting a certain amount of weight
• Some employees may also benefit from an ergonomic assessment. This looks at your workstation, equipment, and the tools you use each day.

You may get feedback for:

• Assistive devices
• Certain types of desk chairs
• Other workstation changes that improve posture and safety
• Assessments and Services for Employers
• We offer Industrial Rehabilitation work safety training programs for businesses.

Therapists can provide group or one-on-one training in safely handling materials or proper posture and techniques to perform work-related tasks.
