Functional
Capacity Evaluation and Work Capacity Evaluations |
|
| These
tests assess the physical ability of an individual to perform
a specific job or activity and, are extremely helpful in ensuring
a safe return to work. Testing qualifies the task a worker can
perform in terms of an easily understandable measure. The FCE
allows the referring party to match individual's physical abilities
with those required for common occupation. Both WCEs and FCEs
are useful facilitating case closure. |

| A multidisciplinary
approach is used to ensure a return to work. TheraComp™'s
focus on returning the injured worker back to work
and productive life style. TheraComp™'s
approach utilizes timely communication between all

productive life style can be facilitated. |

helpful in closing difficult cases by accurately quantifying
job tasks and successful matching worker to the work. |
