Objective Assessment and Structured Rehabilitation for Safe, Sustainable Return to Work

Functional capacity evaluations

About Functional Capacity Evaluations

Returning to work after an injury requires more than symptom improvement—it requires a clear understanding of physical abilities, job demands, and functional readiness. Our team provides comprehensive evaluations and structured rehabilitation programs to support safe, confident, and sustainable return-to-work outcomes.

We focus on objectively measuring functional capacity, improving strength and endurance, restoring work-specific abilities, and supporting communication between workers, employers, and insurers when required.

Our Services Include:

  • Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs)
    Comprehensive, standardized assessments that objectively measure physical abilities such as lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling, positional tolerances, and endurance. Results help guide return-to-work planning and clarify safe work capabilities.
  • Work Conditioning Programs
    Structured, goal-oriented rehabilitation programs designed to improve strength, stamina, flexibility, and tolerance to job-specific tasks. These programs simulate real workplace demands to safely build capacity.
  • Return to Work Assessments
    Detailed evaluations that compare an individual’s current functional abilities to the physical demands of their specific job. Recommendations may include graduated return-to-work plans, job modifications, or ergonomic adjustments.
