Back/Neck Assessment

The functional capacity evaluation for persons with back/neck injuries focuses on the individual’s sitting and standing tolerances, positional tolerances, ability to repeatedly use the arms while sitting or standing, ability to sustain a viewing posture while working at the computer or desk, lifting and carrying capacities. Evaluation findings are correlated with the Department of Labor's standard 5-point physical demand scale of light, sedentary, medium, heavy and very heavy work.
