There is an old saying “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. HEALTHSERV recognizes that prevention is an important part of any disability management program. It offers a range of services designed to accomplish this. Job Demand Analysis can be used to identify the Bona Fide Occupational Requirements (BFOR's) of a job. BFOR's can be used to develop Preplacement screening criteria, enabling the employer to effectively identify individuals who are physically capable to perform a specific job. Our Health Surveillance and Annual / Executive Health programs help individuals identify potential health concerns early on. Early identification enables individuals to take appropriate measures to address these issues to prevent potential further complications.

Early intervention is the key to successful rehabilitation of the ill or injured individual. HEALTHSERV provides a range of disability management / return to work services to facilitate early intervention and rehabilitation of workers in a cost-effective manner. Our Occupational Health Physicians and Occupational Health Nurses have extensive "hands on" experience dealing with workers, supervisors, unions, company "joint rehabilitation committees", community resources, etc., to coordinate rehabilitation and manage safe and timely return to work.
