At Health@Work, there are two objectives to our comprehensive occupational rehabilitation program—to prevent injury, and to return the injured employee to work as soon as possible. Our focus is on case resolution. We work closely with physicians, employers, the injured worker, case manager, social workers, and vocational rehabilitation counselors. The benefits of having occupational medicine and occupational rehab in one location are convenience for your employee, occupational physician access, and a business awareness of workers' compensation issues and concerns.

We offer a supportive, professional atmosphere, with licensed therapists who will work with you and your employee to prevent and/or treat injuries. We offer preventative programs, including on-site exercise programs, supervisor training, back school, work-site analysis, and post-offer screens.

Our therapists are experienced with workers' compensation injuries and issues and are Certified Workers' Compensation Commission Rehab Providers. They will work with your employee to develop a program of rehabilitation that meets the needs of the employee, preparing him or her for a safe return to work.

Work Conditioning: An intensive, goal-oriented treatment program specifically designed to restore an individual's strength, endurance, movement, flexibility, and motor control. The objective of the work conditioning program is to restore the client's physical capacity and function so the client can return to some form of employment.

Work Hardening: A program that improves an individual's strength, endurance, movement, flexibility, and motor control in conjunction with real or simulated work activities. Work hardening is a transition between acute therapy and return to work while addressing the issues of productivity, safety, physical tolerances, and work behaviors. Work hardening is a highly structured, goal-oriented, individualized treatment program designed to maximize the individual's ability to return to his or her pre-injury job.

Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE): FCE is an intensive short-term (usually one-day) evaluation that focuses on major physical tolerance abilities related to musculoskeletal strength, endurance, speed and flexibility. The FCE gathers data to determine consistency of effort, physical demand level, and employability.

On-site Work Hardening: The client is seen in the workplace for the performance of job tasks under supervision of the therapist. The therapist will educate the client on modified techniques to perform their job more safely if appropriate.

Work-site Evaluation: This includes analysis of the work environment, job demands, force measurements, and equipment use. Suggestions are often made to the employer that have the potential to increase safety in the workplace in an attempt to decrease the probability of injury.

Work-site Education for Employees and/or Supervisors: This includes services like back school, exercises (warm-up and stretching), job rotation, work station design, etc.

Pre-employment/Post-offer Screenings: Screenings that can last from fifteen minutes to an hour that assess the potential employee's ability to perform essential job functions such as maximum lifting, climbing, standing, etc.
