WorkCover injuries | Return to work clinic
Our goal is to return workers to their pre-injury role with their pre-injury employer, pain free and moving well.
WorkCover injury Physiotherapy treatment on the Gold Coast.
Previous experience as a WorkCover QLD approved return to work Physiotherapy clinic.
About our Physiotherapy return to work clinic:
Our Principal Physiotherapist Wade has worked in the Occupational Physiotherapy field for the last 18 years. Using this knowledge and experience we have designed specific return to work assessments and treatment services to get you back to work quicker, and keep you there once you return.
We understand that work injuries are not typical sports medicine injuries. They require specific (work focused) assessments and treatment. Workcover claims require great communication and case management involving the worker, the doctor, the employer and our Physiotherapist.
How this is different to standard Physiotherapy:
Discussion of your work injury and how it happened
Detailed explanation of the WorkCover process
Discussion of the job demands of your role (what do you need to be able to do to return to your job)
Establishing return to work goals and time frames
Assessment of your injury AND your current work capacity
Regular communication with your doctor to ensure suitable treatment is provided
Treatment to help your pain AND ensure you can complete the main tasks needed in your job role
Regular re-assessment of your work specific lifting, carrying and bending capacity
