Functional Abilities Evaluations (FAE)

FAE testing is a valuable tool to guide the return to work process or to quantify very specifically, a patient’s functional abilities and limitations. Quantification and objective testing of safe maximums for the patient can ensure a safe return to the work place.

The FAE can also help identify transitional return to work job placement following rehabilitation for those patients who are not yet able to return to full duties. Ergomed Solutions offers One and Two Day Matheson Protocol FAE’s. These evaluations are reported in a narrative format with expanded descriptions of testing and work simulation stations which can be readily matched with job specific physical demands analyses as requested.

The Sports Rehabilitation Institute provides these types of evaluations to numerous employers and insurance company clients with excellent feedback and satisfaction at understanding clearly, the ability of the patient they have referred.
