Work-Physical Reconditioning Program
Functional Capacity Evaluations. Impairment Ratings.
Our Work–Physical Reconditioning Program is dedicated to returning the injured client to gainful employment. It is a program of gradually progressive work related activities performed with proper body mechanics which reconditions the person's musulo-skeletal and cardiovascular systems to prepare them for return to work. Often times a functional capacity evaluation and/or an impairment rating is needed to help determine the patients rehabilitation program.
