Initial Needs Assessments
Clarifying Capacity. Identifying Barriers. Charting the Path Forward.
At ELEV8 Consulting, our Initial Needs Assessment is more than just a checkpoint—it’s a strategic launchpad for safe, sustainable recovery and return to work. Delivered by experienced rehabilitation consultants, our assessments provide a holistic picture of the individual’s current functional status while identifying psychosocial, medical, and workplace barriers that may be impacting recovery.
We take a values-driven and person-centred approach, ensuring clients feel heard and respected, while providing clear, clinically justified recommendations that are practical, actionable, and aligned with evidence-based practice.
