Early intervention and recovery coordination for work-related shoulder injuries

Our integrated approach streamlines the path from injury assessment to recovery and return to work, delivering clear communication and coordinated referrals through our network of experienced healthcare professionals.

Comprehensive treatment and seamless return to work coordination

Dedicated to addressing work-related shoulder injuries, the Cuff Link Service offers comprehensive early intervention through expedited referrals to a highly experienced Lifecare physiotherapist and facilitates return to work from an experienced Konekt workplace rehabilitation consultant.

Upon thorough assessment, a customised treatment pathway and comprehensive report detailing the client’s work capacity and ongoing management are devised to support a swift recovery.


Access to a network of experts

Following a client’s initial comprehensive assessment, referrals are expedited to additional services if required.

This ensures smooth transition to providers such as Konekt for workplace rehabilitation, Prof Allan Wang (shoulder specialist and orthopaedic surgeon), and occupational physicians for Workcover Medical Certificates.
