ALLIED HEALTH AND REHABILITATION
Support recovery with the work goal in view
ABILITY GROUP connects employers with workplace rehabilitation and reconditioning services through its specialist health businesses. The support is tailored to the person, their function and the demands of their role.
After an injury, recovery and work participation can require input from several people. Rehabilitation support can help clarify functional goals, practical barriers and the progression needed for suitable work, within the roles of treating practitioners and the applicable scheme.
How we can help
Rehabilitation planning
Discuss the work goal, capacity information and the support needed to progress.
Workplace focus
Consider the tasks, environment and adjustments relevant to safe and sustainable participation.
Reconditioning
Explore strengthening and graded activity where appropriate to the person and professional assessment.
Connected with the employer response
Allied health rehabilitation can inform, but does not replace, employer return-to-work coordination, treating advice or insurer decisions. We can connect the relevant HEALTH ABILITY and ABILITY GROUP teams so a practical plan is clear to the people involved. The service and provider are agreed for each matter.
Questions employers ask
How is workplace rehabilitation different from return-to-work coordination?
Rehabilitation focuses on function, recovery and work demands. Return-to-work coordination manages the employer pathway and suitable work arrangements. They can complement each other.
Can you assist with one employee?
Yes. We can discuss the individual circumstances and whether an assessment, rehabilitation program or another response is suitable.
Will rehabilitation reduce claim costs?
Outcomes depend on the person, workplace and scheme. The goal is appropriate recovery and sustainable work participation; no cost result can be guaranteed.
