Catastrophic Case Management Services

Paediatric Case Management

For paediatric injuries, specialist rehabilitation is needed to support both the child and their families through major incidents.

Not only does the right support need to be provided that is age appropriate and communicated effectively, but consideration must be made to how these major events may affect a child’s development and education. Paediatric rehabilitation must be provided by a clinical expert with extensive knowledge of education systems and appropriate care in the community as well as having an understanding of treatment and rehabilitation needs.

Acquired Brain Injury Case Management

Following an Acquired Brain Injury, Injured Parties not only have to adjust to physical changes, but also their emotional and behavioural adjustments to achieve the best possible outcomes in their recovery.

This process is challenging, but with Corporé’s specialist case management support and extensive experience, we can help individuals with brain injuries overcome these overwhelming adjustments and progress their rehabilitation, one step at a time.

Spinal Injury Case Management

Spinal injury rehabilitation case management encompasses so much more than the treatment and rehabilitation of physical injuries.

Our specialist Case Managers understand that a relationship must be developed with the injured party to rebuild their confidence, empower them to adjust to physical changes and provide the appropriate adaptations to achieve optimum independence.

Amputation Case Management

Rehabilitation following amputation can be a complex process. It requires the support of an expert with specialist experience in amputations to navigate the process to ensure the best possible outcomes can be achieved for both the Injured Party and the case.

Our Rehabilitation Case Managers understand the complexities following amputation for both the injured party and their legal team. They understand the emotional and psychological upheaval – the grief, body image worries and depression that is often associated with amputation that could further complicate the claim.

And we understand that amputation rehabilitation is a manageable, achievable process that, with the right support, can help individuals gain independence once again.

Sexual Abuse Rehabilitation Case Management

It is crucial that sexual abuse rehabilitation cases are handled with trust and sensitivity. Proper management of every case must be ensured at every stage of the process.

With the sensitive management of our Case Managers, an individual’s physical and mental health is supported, providing survivors the safe space and help they need to regain control and independence of their lives.

Clinical Negligence

When a trusted healthcare professional has practised negligent treatment, the difficulties in getting the Injured Party to have faith in professional authorities once again can be understandably problematic. A bond of trust has been broken when the Injured Party is at their most vulnerable.

When clinical negligence occurs, you, the legal representative, and the Injured Party need the support from a trusted third party with extensive clinical knowledge to attain the right treatment for injuries from a trusted source, and the experience to manage individuals who have lost their confidence and trust in authority organisations, helping to empower them once again.
