Physical Medicine Assessment

For doctors in the community requiring a physical medicine assessment.

Independent Medical Examination

Thorough physical medicine assessment when trying to clarify diagnosis or determine the reason for prolonged recovery. This is often helpful when the medical history is very complicated and requires deciphering.

Physical Therapy(Acute/primary injury management)

Pathway Rehabilitation works with South Winnipeg Physiotherapy to provide these services.

Comprehensive Day Programming

This includes both reconditioning and work hardening program. We will also go out to the job site to ensure that programming in clinic is properly reflecting the demands of the job. These program are very individualized and specific to the type of occupation to which the client is returning.

Functional Capacity Evaluations

Minimum 2 day evaluation to determine current restrictions. We also offer sedentary FCE's.

Facilitated Collaborative Rehabilitation Assessment

Similar to a multidisciplinary assessment. Patients first go through an intake assessment with the Health Management Specialist, followed by an assessment and functional abilities examination with a physiotherapist and occuptational therapist, followed by an examination by Dr. Lesiuk. A report is then prepared and recommendation are made based on the examination findings and the results of the functional testing. This can be helpful in determining whether a person is a candidate for a reconditioning program, or fit to return to work.

Functional abilities examination

4-5 of the clients critical job demands are functionally tested to establish a baseline for reconditioning or work hardening programs.

Rehabilitation/reconditioning assessments

When a reconditioning/work hardening program has been recommended, an intake assessment is done with the Health Management Specialist and a physical assessment and functional abilities examination is performed by a physiotherapist and an occupational therapist to establish a baseline. This information is then used to determine the focus of the program, and provides a benchmark for future functional testing results, which helps to determine the clients functional progress throughout the program.
