The Optimized Recovery Program for Injured Workers
A Whole-Person Approach to Improving Recovery Outcomes
Too often, injured workers fall through the cracks, stuck in cycles that delay their return to work and life. The Optimized Outcome program helps individuals who were injured at work gain back their health and vitality through a structured program designed by medical professionals and recovery experts.
Using this program, participants have improved their recovery outcomes, resulting in less need for subsequent care and fewer complications.
By teaching proper mindset, nutrition, physical activity, and proper rest, our program encourages injured workers to work toward their best well-being, despite the challenge of a surgery or injury.
