Functional Capacity Evaluation testing includes:

• Whether an individual provided consistent physical effort and whether their reports of pain and disability are consistent
• Musculoskeletal screening evaluation
• Dexterity testing
• Body mobility and agility testing – e.g. sitting, standing, walking, climbing
• Lifting, carrying, pushing/pulling
• Work simulation
• Detect psychosocial barriers that may be interfering with participation

Our therapists utilize a whole person approach when barriers present themselves in order to objectively determine the root problems.

All assessment are tailored to the specific referral questions and are usually performed over one or two days in Clinical Space at Concordia Physiotherapy Clinic, Winnipeg. The workplace is accessed where the individual performs specific job tasks whenever possible.
