Supporting a Safer, More Informed Return to Work
Focus Brain Therapy objectively evaluates and rehabilitates the cognitive, balance, visual, vestibular, and functional abilities needed for work. These findings are provided to the treating neurologist, who determines work restrictions, return-to-work status, MMI, and, when applicable, permanent impairment.

Memory
Working memory and recall for instructions and procedures.
Processing Speed
The rate at which information is understood and acted upon.
Executive Function
Planning, organization, and complex problem-solving.
Reaction Time
Speed of response to environmental stimuli and safety cues.
Balance & Coordination
Physical stability and motor control in the workplace.
Cognitive Endurance
Ability to sustain performance over a full workday.
Cognitive Rehabilitation
Our rehabilitation programs are specifically designed to bridge the gap between clinical recovery and workplace performance. We focus on building the stamina and strategies needed to handle real-world job duties safely and effectively.
Progressive Return-to-Work Support
We provide data-driven recommendations for phased returns, including reduced hours, modified duties, and environmental accommodations to ensure a sustainable reintegration.
Communication and Coordination
We facilitate clear communication between all stakeholders:
- group Parties: Employee, HR, Case Manager, Treating Neurologist
- share Shared Info: Evaluation findings, participation levels, and functional progress.
