Case Managers


The Nerve Injury Clinic treats many individuals on behalf of rehabilitation case managers. In particular we specialise in motor bike and road traffic accidents and industrial accidents causing complex conditions such as nerve injuries, brain injury, fractures, amputations and soft tissue damage. Our experience in this area allows us to meet the needs of case managers by providing:

  • A written quotation for the assessment (and ongoing treatment if required) to allow funds to be secured

  • Clinic based initial assessment- this can include Surface electromyography for nerve injuries if required.

  • The option for case managers to attend the assessment

  • A full written report following the assessment. This report will detail the outcome of the assessment, goals for treatment, timescales and recommended treatment with costings

  • Treatment sessions will be provided in clinic, however home or work place assessments can also be accommodated.

  • Treatment alongside NHS physiotherapy services if required

  • Home treatment and management programs.

  • Close contact and communication with the rest of the rehabilitation team and case manager throughout treatment. Regular liaison with personal trainers, other physiotherapists involved and occupational therapists in particular to ensure joint goal setting.

  • Orthotics assessment at the clinic with the physiotherapist present.

  • Advice re equipment, return to work and referral to other professionals, eg wheelchair services, peripheral nerve or orthopaedic or neurology consultants.

  • Interim reports detailing progress made and new goals or aims of treatment.

  • Discharge reports at the end of treatment

  • Maintenance physiotherapy.

Testimonials

 

“I have worked with Claire Downs in supporting a number of my clients who have sustained significant nerve injuries. I have been highly impressed by the level of skill, understanding and enthusiasm which Claire has brought to her physiotherapy treatment which my clients so desperately need. She is able to incorporate functional physiotherapy to her treatment sessions which helps the client engage in their rehabilitation  and so they can see the  gains they are making, through their hard work. 

Claire provides a highly organised service with regular treatment updates and timely reporting. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Nerve Injury Clinic to my clients, family or friends.”

Rachel Gannon

Case Manager, Rehab Without Walls

“I am a rehabilitation case manager and referred a client to Claire with complex lower limb injuries, I found Claire to be highly professional, extremely knowledgeable, always willing to provide advice and extra support.  Claire’s reports were always delivered on time, clear and very comprehensive.  I would most definitely refer to Claire again and have no hesitation in recommending Claire to other case managers.”
