Enabling you to live your life your way.

What happens after a child sustains a brain injury is often where families need the most support.

Once the immediate medical care has passed, many families find themselves facing a series of decisions, appointments and conversations, often while still trying to make sense of what has happened. It can feel like a lot to hold at once.

Through case management, we help families make sense of this stage by bringing some order and continuity to the process. That might involve coordinating professionals, supporting communication, or simply helping families focus on one step at a time. Having someone alongside them early on can ease pressure, reduce uncertainty, and help support develop, in a steadier, more manageable way as needs evolve.

21/01/2026

A child’s brain injury rarely affects just one person. It becomes part of everyday life for the whole family.

No two families experience this in the same way. Home environments, routines, responsibilities and pressures all differ, and those differences shape what support needs to look like. What feels manageable for one family may feel overwhelming for another.

In our work, we spend time getting to know families and understanding what life actually looks like for them. Support is then shaped around that reality and adjusted as things change.
When care reflects real life, families are more likely to feel settled and supported, and children have the space they need to move forward in a way that feels right for them.

20/01/2026

A support worker role is about more than covering shifts or completing tasks. It’s about showing up consistently, taking the time to understand someone, and supporting them to live their everyday life with confidence.

For the right person, this is work that gives back. You’re building trust, encouraging independence, and becoming part of someone’s routine in a way that genuinely matters.

If you’re looking to grow in a support worker role where care, purpose and people come first, we’d really like to hear from you.

Supporting a child after a serious brain injury is never one-size-fits-all.

Every child presents differently. Needs can change over time, and the right support has to move with them. What helps one child may not be right for another, even when injuries appear similar on paper.

We support children and families by taking time to really understand their world and what matters most to them. Support is shaped around everyday life, with care that listens, adapts and responds as needs change.

When support feels steady and familiar, it brings reassurance, which helps children feel more secure, families feel supported day to day, and progress can happen at a pace that feels right for each child.

January brings a few work birthdays across our team, and with them a reminder of something we value deeply.

Continuity matters. Familiar faces matter. In complex cases, consistency of care makes a real difference for clients, families and the professionals we work alongside.

Seeing people grow with us over time reflects a supportive working environment and a shared commitment to doing things properly. It’s how trust is built, and how care stays consistent.

We’re proud of the people behind the work.

13/01/2026

Working in support is about more than tasks and shifts. It’s about being present, building trust, and making a genuine difference to someone’s everyday life.

If you’re looking for a support worker role where people come first and your work truly matters, we’d love to hear from you.

✨2025 End of Year Round-Up In Pictures ✨

Time really does fly when you are busy.

As we reach the end of 2025, it is a good moment to pause and reflect on a year that has been full, varied and, at times, challenging, but exactly the kind of year we thrive on.

Highlights have included our Business Services Manager, Joe Hudson, receiving a well-deserved CMSUK award; our client Salam winning at the The Yorkshire Children of Courage Awards ; and another successful joint 'Collaboration in Rehabilitation' conference with our partners Intospeech and Healing Touch Rehab, where we were privileged to hear from truly inspirational speakers.

Alongside this, we have attended industry events and conferences (including unexpectedly meeting a ‘Traitor’ Series 2 Finalist, Andrew Jenkins), shared powerful stories of positive change for our clients including Amelia, the youngest person in Europe to be fitted with a bionic hand – and continued to strengthen relationships through 'lunch and learn' Recharge and Refocus sessions with our legal partners.

Add in team training, support worker development days, charity events, a few glamorous evenings, and even a couple of weddings, and it is fair to say it has been another busy and rewarding year for the Positive OT & Case Management team.

Here’s to 2026 — wishing you all a very happy, healthy and successful New Year.

24/12/2025

We would like to thank our clients and their families, therapy partners, legal teams, and professional peers for their support and collaboration throughout 2025.

We hope the festive period allows time for a well-earned break and some rest.

Looking forward to the new year, we remain focused on providing high-quality case management and occupational therapy services.

✨With best wishes from the team at Positive OT & Case Management ✨

Last night’s Yorkshire Acquired Brain Injury Forum was a great event.

Our director, Jackie Chappel, was invited to speak alongside Fay Collinson, Barrister at Kings Chambers about how collaboration benefits clients and how independent case managers can support effective partnerships between private and statutory services.

The evening rounded off with festive drinks, mince pies, and a valuable networking opportunity.
