Rehabilitation

Injuries such as sprained tendons, muscular damage or fractures all require personalised rehabilitation solutions. Some employees will be able to return to their jobs relatively quickly with simple education and exercise-based solutions whilst others will need more assistance from a multi-disciplinary team and face longer recovery times. In both cases, high-quality rehabilitation plans have been shown to have huge benefits for both the employee and employer in terms of productivity and reducing long-term costs. We will collaborate with you to develop an in-depth programme tailored to optimise your employee’s recovery whilst meeting business needs.

Onsite Return to Work Management Following Injury or Illness

Reintegrate your employee on a schedule that is effective, comfortable for them and mitigates the risk of further injury whilst continuing key tasks. Strategies including managed work hours, pain management, activity pacing, task modification, transitional duties and postural variation can all help support a graduated return to work.

Task Analysis Sheets

Design specific task analysis sheets for staff members that require restricted duties under medical supervision. These include task description, photos, key demands, task frequency as well as a section for medical approval. As they are pictorial, these forms better help doctors understand tasks and mitigate risks.

Functional Fitness for Work Testing

Observe and objectively test an employee’s ability to undertake the physical demands associated with their job, decreasing chances of workplace re-injury.

Work-Specific Functional Rehabilitation Programmes

Develop a comprehensive functional exercise programme in collaboration with other physiotherapy providers in your community. Exercise programmes include  task and context specific practice that is relevant to the person’s job tasks and that aims to return your employee to full resumption of their work role. High-quality rehabilitation plans benefit both the employee and employer. We will collaborate with you to develop an in-depth programme tailored to optimise your employee’s recovery and business outcomes.
