Returning to work following an injury can be difficult. Industrial rehabilitation services, or return-to-work services, provide patients with therapy designed to make their transition back to work as smooth and safe as possible. While the majority of people benefiting from return-to-work services are those recovering from work-related injuries, these services can also benefit people recovering from orthopaedic surgery and those suffering from recurrent injuries and repetitive trauma.

Industrial rehabilitation services, working collaboratively with Concord Hospital Occupational Health Services, provides a specialized approach to injured workers and have been available for over 15 years. Comprehensive preventive and rehabilitative services for treating all conditions are available. Services provided include:

• Pre-placement employment screenings
• Treatment of acute injuries
• Functional capacity evaluations to determine a patient’s optimum performance and readiness to return to work
• Work conditioning program to help patients restore their functional work level and allow them to return to previous employment and function
• Work station evaluation to determine if the configuration may be contributing to symptoms or limiting progress in recovery
