Most workers recover following soft tissue injury and return to their usual work within 4 weeks of the injury. A proportion of workers does not and suffers long term disability and work loss.
These injured workers often have difficulty planning how to increase movement and return to their normal movements (including work).The Fix Program uses work related activity to assist workers recover from their injury. We follow the WorkCover NSW soft tissue injury guidelines, using an approach referred to as "integrated active management" to help our clients recover and achieve a timely, safe and durable return to work. Active management is aligned with the widely accepted "biopsychosocial model" of injury management.
The Fix Program has been providing functional rehabilitation programs within the workers compensation system since 1999. We only employ tertiary qualified physiotherapists with extensive experience in teaching therapeutic exercise. Each client is placed in the correct rehabilitation program based on our assessment findings and our liaison with the rehabilitation case manager and the treating professionals.
