ARCON: The ARCON Functional Capacity Evaluation System has become the world leader in lifting capacity evaluation with over 600 systems in use worldwide. This system combines static and dynamic testing to accurately assess the ability of an individual to perform the essential functions related to the work environment. The goal is for each patient to be tested in an objective manner and to provide you with reliable data for use in determining treatment, therapy, or return-to-work status. This information will be provided to you in a comprehensive report format that provides for easy interpretation. ARCON testing protocols are supported by peer reviewed published studies to insure supportable data for use in all applications and to provide a standardized testing platform.
The ARCON system is unsurpassed in its ability to simulate job demands, from measuring functional capacity to organizing a program for return to work. ARCON takes the guesswork out of testing with complete documentation.
KEY: The KEY Method FCE is an objective and legally defensible protocol for evaluating people's safe capabilities. When administered by our certified therapists, an FCE can meet the needs of clients, physicians, insurance carriers, employers and lawyers in determining work potential or determining safe activity tolerances. To provide confidence that the assessment results paint a true picture of the client's safe capabilities, each KEY assessment includes a Validity Index indicating the extent of the person's participation. For convenience, the KEY Method FCE equipment is mobile, allowing our therapists to conduct the assessment across Southwestern Ontario in our clinics, employer worksites or at clients' homes.
