Rehabilitation case management support is essential for every personal injury. But not every injury should be treated the same. For life-changing, catastrophic injuries, holistic support is required to manage the many different rehabilitation needs of an injured party to help empower and rebuild their lives. But how is this achieved?
Catastrophic injury is defined by an event that has caused life-changing and long-lasting damage.
It includes profound injuries such as acquired brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and accidents involving the necessity to amputate.
With such complex, severe, and varying injuries, it’s crucial that dedicated, tailored support is provided in a timely manner.
This is best provided through rehabilitation case management.
Every case management service has a specific role to play in the rehabilitation of different injuries.
For minor injuries, we provide a Desktop case management service. This offers access to high-quality virtual rehabilitation from a dedicated Case Manager. They create and monitor progress of rehabilitation plans and provide advice and recommendations of additional treatment services without the expense of face-to-face support.
With the complexities involved in catastrophic injuries, face-to-face, holistic support is essential to achieving optimum outcomes for injured parties. Enter Corporé’s Catastrophic Case Management service.
With an outcome focused, but also person-centred perspective, Corporé’s catastrophic case management service concentrates on collaboration. Communication lines are developed with a range of treatment providers and medical professionals, dependent on the injured individual’s needs, whilst maintaining contact with the injured party, their family and all instructing parties.
Upon instruction from Claimant Solicitor and/or Insurer customers, the chosen Catastrophic Injury Case Manager from our network will contact the Injured Party as quickly as possible to undertake an Initial Needs Assessment. This identifies the rehabilitation needs of the Injured Party, including treatment and medical requirements, any additional non-medical support, plus possible barriers that may affect their optimum return to function.
Our Case Managers then create a personalised rehabilitation plan before coordinating medical professionals, support services and community help at optimum times in the process to action the plan. Reviews of this plan and any goals agreed with the injured party are discussed in regular meetings, with changes made to rehabilitation where appropriate to help reach optimum function.
Through this collaborative approach, our Case Managers can ensure our clients receive the best possible rehabilitation and support for their injuries, helping them to rebuild their lives and empower their independence.
Within catastrophic injury rehabilitation case management, we provide support from hospital discharge through to regaining optimum function and independence. This means that it can be a long, demanding and strenuous process. However long the rehabilitation journey takes, it requires expert coordination to achieve optimum outcomes. That’s why we have a network of expert Case Managers with the experience and knowledge to support these complex cases.
