Paediatric Rehabilitation Case Management
Rebound Kids is a specialised case management service assisting children and young people who have suffered traumatic injuries and need professional health support to recover and to navigate the rehabilitation process.
Our LTCS and ICWA approved case managers deliver ongoing support with the aim of every child progressing from hospital to home to school/ study, sports and beyond.
Our case managers are all senior registered allied health professionals.
Specialised Skills and Expertise
We believe that working with children requires a specific professional and clinical skill set. We are able to offer our clients support in the following;-
Child Development- In-depth understanding of childhood development and how traumatic injuries interrupt this continuum.
Family Centred- We ‘partner’ with the child’s family to establish a strong and lasting therapeutic rapport.
Diagnostics- We obtain a clear diagnosis for all injuries sustained to include TBI severity. We can then ensure an evidence-based approach i.e. the child accesses the right treatment at the right time.
Education- We ensure that the child is adequately funded and supported through the DET/ School pathways. We ensure that each child has an appropriate Individualised Learning Plan in place and in action.
Paediatric Treatment Providers- We have knowledge of experienced paediatric allied health clinicians across NSW and Sydney with whom we work with to offer evidence-based treatment programs locally for our paediatric clients.
Career Choices/ Transition- We support the youth in mapping out future study / work experience pathways and coach them throughout these years to ensure that they are able to secure employment.
