OccuPro welcomes Labette Health to its list of Online Assessment Application Software providers! Labette Health sent three of their therapists to OccuPro’s Work Hardening – Work Conditioning Training course in the fall of 2010. The clinicians took the information and newly acquired skills back to Parsons Kansas and implemented a Work Hardening program within their therapy department. Following 2 years of growing their program they were ready to take the next step in the growth of their industrial rehab programs.

Labette Health implemented OccuPro’s comprehensive suite industrial rehab software in the fall of 2011. In addition to the software, OccuPro successfully conducted a Comprehensive Industrial Rehabilitation Training course for members of the Labette Health’s Rehabilitation team which exceeded their expectations. OccuPro thanks Labette Health for their business and welcomes them to the OccuPro OAA family.

About Labette Health:

Labette health opened its doors more than 50 years ago as a non-profit rural hospital to serve the Parson, Kansas community. Since then, Labette Health has grown to provide clinics and medical centers that specialize in quality medical care in the areas of Family Practice, Internal Medicine, OB/GYN, Pediatrics, Physiatry, Surgery, and Wound & Skin Healing. In addition to these and many other services, Labette Health provides rehabilitation services that include Speech Language Pathology, Physical Therapy, Inpatient Rehabilitation, Occupational Therapy and Sports Medicine. Labette Health’s industrial rehab goals include a concerted effort in working closer with employers in Parsons Kansas and turned to OccuPro’s training and software to assist in their efforts to provide higher quality services to injured workers and local employers.

About OccuPro Software/Courses:

OccuPro's Comprehensive Industrial Rehabilitation Training course is the industry’s only course that teaches clinicians the most comprehensive and profitable approach to a full industrial rehab program. Clinicians and practices turn to this course when they are looking to put full return to work industrial program into their practice and increase their opportunities to work with local employers. This course also complements OccuPro’s Online Assessment Application software as this web based system has the most testing options as compared to any other software system on the market.

The main aspect of OccuPro’s innovative approach to industrial rehab includes the implementation of their proprietary Functional Progress Notes and Functional Discharge Summaries. Functional Progress Notes and Functional Discharge Summaries are functional re-assessments that are performed during outpatient therapy. Unlike an FCE that tests a person’s entire body, these functional re-assessments test the injured joint to help determine if the injured joint is ready to return to full duty work.

“Jim Mecham was very knowledgeable and helpful in tailoring his course to our unique clinical site and needs.” -Teresa Gabhart, PT, DPT Labette Health
