Saunders’ mission is to identify and maximize the work-related functional abilities of those injured on the job. Communication is a hallmark of our service. We work closely with the client, physician, Qualified Rehabilitation Counselor (QRC), case manager, insurance adjuster, and employer to fully understand the unique requirements of each case.
Each of our clinics has a large gym area and equipment that allows us to perform unique FCEs, with the ability to simulate job-related activities for nearly any occupation. The clinicians who provide our FCE services are specially trained and very experienced. They understand industry, the workers compensation system, and the unique needs for evaluating clients with work-related injuries.
In addition to FCEs, we offer Work Hardening rehabilitation services and our specialized Work Ready for Brain Injury Program.
Our Method
The best way to evaluate a person’s endurance is to observe our clients in a work-like environment for multiple hours and days. That’s why Saunders Therapy Centers’ FCE is 2, full days long.
We spend a great deal of time prior to every FCE to make sure we understand the purpose. The activities tested during the two, 8-hour days are often very specific to a particular job. We can also perform a more generic FCE if we are being asked to identify general abilities for job search. Our Functional Capacity Evaluation is appropriate for all types of injuries.
Realistic, Experienced, Non-Biased
