AccuCare's licensed physical therapists are trained and certified to perform the ErgoScience Physical Work Performance Evaluation (PWPE). The PWPE is a highly structured test designed to report the level of work a patient is able to perform at that given time. The PWPE can test for maximum objective strength without risk of further injury. This enables the therapist to objectively assess a patient's current level of function.

The PWPE is a one day 4 hour test with the finding reported to the patient's doctor.
