Fast Tracks to Recovery: Advanced PT Strategies for Early RTW in Workers' Comp Cases with Lucas Myers
In this episode of Fit for Duty, Dr. Larry Earl, president of the National Association of Occupational Health Professionals, is joined by Lucas Myers, Senior Director at ATI Physical Therapy.
They delve into the world of advanced physical therapy for occupational health. They discuss the use of work conditioning, an innovative method that combines standard physical rehabilitation with elements tailored to job-specific tasks, by simulating workplace scenarios as part of the therapy process. This approach provides a transformative bridge between recovering from injury and securing a safe and effective return to work.
Myers also highlights the importance of effective communication between the therapist, physician, and injured worker. The possibility of customizing therapy sessions to resemble actual work situations is explored as well. The conversation also touches on the need for continuous learning, preventing work injuries, and the importance of advocacy for patients.
