This device is used to provide a safe means of treating gait and balance impairments to improve mobility skills and endurance required in various work environments, expand mobility options within an employment setting, and advance safety awareness and reactions associated with work demands. The design incorporates a constant fall arrest feature that allows physical therapists to work with patients up to 350# of various abilities to practice intensive gait and balance activities without the fear of falling. By altering the amount of body-weight support the complexity of the gait, balance or transfer task can be adjusted. This flexibility will allow clients of differing abilities to practice walking, perform balance tasks, sit-to-stand and floor-to-stand maneuvers, or stairs in a safe and controlled environment. They can also safely experience balance losses to develop the skill to correct their position to avoid falls.

Individuals preparing to enter the workforce or return to work after an injury of illness may have some concerns about their abilities to perform the job safely and effectively. The Physical Therapy Department offers the Physical Work Performance Evaluation (PWPE), a specialized evaluation of a person's physical ability to perform work activities.
የፊዚካል ቴራፒስቶች የእያንዳንዱን ደንበኛ ሁኔታ ይገመግማሉ
Evaluation results allow physical therapists to make recommendations to help clients regain the fitness, strength, and conditioning needed to return to work safely. For persons exploring new or alternative work settings, this evaluation can provide guidelines for vocational evaluation and/or training pursuits. For those returning to work after an illness or injury, evaluation results allow comparison of a client's measured physical abilities to specific job demands. The final report provides guidelines to discuss with the employer and recommendations for appropriate worksite accommodations.
