Services Offered
Industrial Rehabilitation
IBJI Rehabilitation Services proudly support our workers’ compensation team in delivering cutting-edge industrial rehabilitation as part of our comprehensive physical and occupational therapy programs.
Our therapists work very closely with workers’ comp doctors to improve efficiency and decrease the time a patient needs to be away from work
Work Conditioning
Work conditioning with IBJI helps injured workers finalize their rehabilitation process to ensure a safe return to work duty. We also focus on decreasing a worker's chance of re-injury.
Our work conditioning clinics are conveniently located across the Chicagoland area. Programs are typically four hours a day for five days, with an individualized program for each injury and job description.
Functional Capacity Evaluations
Functional capacity evaluations at IBJI are done by unbiased, certified physical therapists who work closely with our doctors.
The evaluations use sophisticated diagnostic testing. The report consists of a comprehensive and concise summary, guaranteed within 24 hours. (Sample reports are available upon request.)
IBJI also specializes in independent functional capacity evaluations as a second opinion when a patient has had an assessment performed by another company or care provider.
Post-offer Employment Testing & Functional Work Assessments
IBJI’s workers’ compensation doctors provide high-quality testing to determine fitness for duty for any type of job. Our evaluations can be used for new hires or to match the physical capabilities of a current employee to their position.
All our tests are tailored to fit a current job description or customized using job analysis to create an individualized examination.
Injury Prevention Training and Ergonomic Assessments
Injury prevention can include ergonomic assessments and training, educational components, and exercise training to target areas predisposed to injury.
IBJI’s injury prevention training program has reduced costs for fire, police, and public works departments, municipalities, and private companies.
Job Analysis
A job analysis protects employers and employees by identifying and detailing critical job demands and requirements.
At IBJI, our workers’ compensation team uses the job analysis to help an employer decide if an injured worker can return to full work duty. If an employee isn’t ready for a full return, the analysis can help them get the employee set up for light duty. A high-quality job analysis is also beneficial for setting up the protocols for post-offer employment testing.
