The Who
​
Who can benefit from an FCE? The evaluations are designed for individuals who may face physical challenges due to injury, illness or disability. They're also valuable for employers seeking to ensure that their employees are fit for job duties, helping prevent workplace injuries and boosting productivity.
The What
​
So, what exactly is a Functional Capacity Evaluation? An FCE is a systematic assessment of a person's physical and functional abilities. It assesses the strength, endurance, flexibility, and coordination required to perform specific job tasks safely and effectively. The results provide objective data that can be crucial for rehabilitation, return-to-work decisions, or determining suitability for particular job functions.
​The How
​
Our approach to FCE involves a comprehensive evaluation process that includes:
-
Initial Consultation: We discuss your medical history and specific needs.
-
Assessment: We conduct a series of standardised tests and real-life simulations designed to objectively measure your functional abilities.
-
Reporting: We provide a detailed report outlining your functional abilities and recommendations for rehabilitation or work accommodations.
