The staff works with the patient, family members, health professionals, employers and school systems to provide complete audiologic and electrodiagnostic services to ensure appropriate rehabilitative goals. Administered by Bacharach's certified staff, the FCE accurately and objectively measures an injured worker's ability to perform work-related activities. Additionally, the FCE establishes guidelines for a Work Hardening program appropriate to the job profile and level of the worker. Individual Work Hardening programs typically include job profile analysis, stretching and strengthening, body mechanics, pacing, ergonomic lectures, back school, and work-simulated activities. Bacharach's other programs and services that can assist in returning the injured worker to work are vocational rehabilitation, cardio-pulmonary rehabilitation, psychology and nutritional counseling.
