Current research informs us
that mental health conditions are very common - in particular trauma with unexpected
illness or injury. People are complex, heavily influenced by interconnecting
individual systems (e.g. emotional, cognitive, sensory-perceptual) and the
current environment. Subsequently it is challenging for us to assess and
integrate all the information in a Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) and to
facilitate a successful return to work (RTW). Return to work is therapeutic and
I consider a Functional Capacity Evaluation brief therapy. This workshop focuses
on the assessment and treatment of mental health conditions to facilitate a
comprehensive FCE and sustainable return to work using the whole person MAC integrated model.
Overview:
- Hierarchy of
objective assessment tools for mental health conditions – psychological, social
behavioral, cognitive. Includes trauma/PTSD, learning disabilities (ADHD),
worry-fear-anxiety, depression, addictions.

personality traits, cultural and family influences, workplace influences.
- Individual beliefs –
perceptions (self-efficacy, volition, ability/disability, work
environment).
- Translate assessment results and integrate findings to
work functional ability.
- Strategies and treatment.
- Strength based approach.
- FCE and RTW methods (including best effort –
consistency).
