REHABILITATION THROUGH WORK SIMULATION

Work rehab return to work Adelaide injury physiotherapy disability counselling vocational assessment

Why WorkGain?

Over the last 3 years, we have refined our work simulation WorkGainTM  Program to  provide timely and cost effective information pertaining to true task specific functional ability and work capacity.  The program can be tailored to almost any work situation. There is extensive research supporting the benefits of combining Physiotherapy treatment with work activity, work psychology and social inclusion.  Adopting these principles, the WorkGainTM Program has grown to what it is today.  By simulating work tasks under the supervision of Allied Health professionals, we are promoting not only work specific rehabilitation in a controlled setting, but also encouraging risk assessment and injury prevention through manual handling and education. Working closely with the treating General Practitioners, Surgeons and Allied Health providers, we develop specific work schedules that translate clinical treatment and active, specific and targeted work rehabilitation into functional work output.  This is a one-of-a-kind program in SA which is based on common sense, practical injury management and language that is common to workers and employers. The program offers objective outcomes, efficient timeframes and low cost to enable you to make better return to work decisions using the specific work data we provide.
