Clinicians can also identify those essential job functions that currently limit the client's ability to perform his or her usual duties. Clinicians are encouraged to discuss the physical demands of the position with both the client and the employer. The job description should then be compared to the client's current physical demands in order to identify the essential job functions that will be used as goals to ascertain whether or not the client is making acceptable progress with the treatment being given in returning to work. The goals should be described in objective, measurable, and functional terms. Examples include: 1) occasional lifts of 30 lbs. from floor to shoulder height, 2) able to perform light assembly work above eye level for up to 20 minutes at one time and 2 ½ hours a day, 3) able to be up on their feet for up to 2 hours at one time and 6 hours throughout the day and 4) able to type for 45 minutes at one time without increased symptoms." Improvement in stated functional goals, hours worked, and subjective pain ratings will be used to determine whether or not further treatment will be authorized. Patient's Essential Job Functions: Measurable objective requirements to return to work which is listed as maximum weights able to be lifted from floor to waist, waist to shoulder, and to overhead levels; maximum weight able to be carried; and maximum horizontal force to push/pull. Functional Range of Motion: This indicates the ability the individual has to functionally reach overhead, shoulder height, reach out horizontally, to knee height, and to the floor. Stairs: Assess the ability to ascend and descend stairs. 50 Foot Speed Walk: Start the 50-foot walk test (25 feet out and 25 feet back) and the timer on the command "go." The goal is to walk as quickly as possible to the 25 foot mark and back. The timer is stopped when the participant returns to the initial line. A score of 8 seconds to walk 50 feet is considered "normal" pace. 6 Minute Walk Test: This standardized test assesses the ability of an individual to walk as far as possible in six minutes. The test is conducted on a hard, flat surface at a self selected pace. Balance Test: Assess the individual's ability to stand in single-leg stance for 30 seconds and tandem (heel-toe-heel-toe) walking. Balance can also be assessed during functional tasks of climbing, walking, lifting, and carrying. Lower Extremity Functional Scale: This standardized perceived ability questionnaire assesses the ability or difficulty an individual has participating in and completing various daily activities. The following link is a copy of the Lower Extremity Functional Scale and how to score the form: http://www.physio-pedia.com/Lower_Extremity_Functional_Scale_(LEFS) Knee Outcome Survey: This standardized questionnaire includes a survey of activities of daily living (ADLs) and a survey for sports activity. The survey for ADLs is appropriate for individuals who have not returned to sports activity or those who do not engage in recreational sports. The
