Functional Capacity Evaluation

What is a Functional Capacity Evaluation?

A functional capacity evaluation (FCE) objectively measures an individual's ability to perform personal and occupational tasks. The assessment may be required for rehabilitation, disability determination or work-related injury claims. A standard FCE involves various components such as lifting, balance, and dexterity tests and may last up to 6-8 hours. Chiro-Med offers FCEs, work-site and in-home assessments.
