Case Manager

Description:

Our Case Managers work with clients to ensure that they don’t just survive, but thrive – living their lives to the fullest – whatever that means to them – pursuing hobbies, interests, personal ambitions, education, career goals and whatever else inspires and engages them!

We have a wonderful opportunity for a Case Manager to join our friendly Rehab Without Walls team to manage all the moving parts of the client’s rehabilitation process, introducing the right therapists and services at the right time, coordinating and quality assuring services provided and maintaining effective working relationships with all the parties involved. This is a remote role supporting clients across Birmingham and surrounding areas. Full training will be provided for the right candidate.

For this role you will need to be a driver with ability to travel and hold a HCPC Registration, an NMC Pin or be registered as a Social Worker with at least 3 years post qualification experience. Orthopaedic or community experience would be an advantage as would being an Advanced Member or working towards advanced membership status of the British Association of Brain Injury Case Managers (BABICM).

For over 25 years our Rehab Without Walls team have learned from experience to expect the unexpected! Tales of unusual experiences are passed around, the best becoming RWW folklore. New case managers are regaled with them and soon have their own to add! Between us, we think we’ve developed a pretty formidable (and constantly growing) toolkit of skills, attitudes and actual kit to help us tackle whatever is thrown at us!

Our Case Managers are supported with an industry leading Learning and Development program including our Expert Witness training pathway.

We can also consider Associate (Self Employed) Case Managers - please get in touch for further details.
