Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) in Breast Cancer Recovery
The journey of breast survivorship extends far beyond remission. Many individuals face challenges in regaining strength, endurance, and work readiness after treatment.
A Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) provides a clinical pathway to measure physical and cognitive capacity following surgery, chemosurgery, chemotherapy, or radiation. It identifies safe activity levels, ergonomic needs, and workplace accommodations empowering both the patient and the employer to build sustainable return-to-work strategies.
At Post Surgery Care of Atlanta, LLC, we integrate FCE within a broader recovery framework that honors the whole person: body, mind, and occupation. Healing isn't just about survival; it's about restoring the confidence to perform, contribute, and thrive again.
