BABICM is the UK's premier professional body for case managers working with individuals that have a brain injury and complex needs.
BABICM represents the professional interests and concerns of case managers who work with those who have suffered a brain or complex, serious injury – especially those who have long term conditions.
We constantly strive to develop an ethical and professional structure in which the discipline can flourish and provide a high standard of representation and training to help our members advance, grow and develop their own skills and businesses.
We enable regular targeted professional networking and communication amongst our members for the continued growth, experience and reputation of case management as a profession – as well as to advance individual skills and practice.
BABICM is an inclusive organisation offering strong representation to policy makers, the healthcare and legal industry internationally. We offer representation, professional development support to our members and on behalf of the brain injury and complex profession.
We aim to deliver a clear development pathway to ensure we can consistently promote high standards and professionalism in the delivery of brain injury and complex case management across the UK. We work closely with other organisations to create and promote a national joint case management framework to promote high standards of aspiration, practice and accountability.
We have an extensive range of membership types suitable for everyone from students and established case managers to carers, families and other organisations and businesses that also work with those who have acquired brain injuries or have an interest in the delivery of complex brain injury case management.
