BABICM will be presenting their annual conference entitled ‘Great Expectations: Spotlight on Clinical Excellence” on 18th and 19th June 2024 at the Coventry Building Society Arena, Coventry.   As part of this conference, we are again calling for poster presentations to highlight good practice in the field of brain & complex injury rehabilitation, case management and care.

On the 6th & 7th June 2023 BABICM presented their annual conference entitled ‘Steering Steady in a World of Complexity” at the Coventry Building Society Arena, Coventry.

Case managers are familiar with the challenges that come with working with people who have suffered an acquired brain injury and the impact it has on them and their families. Yet there continues to be a lack of awareness of brain injury outside the industry. MP Chris Bryant, who was knighted in the New Year’s Honours list, has been instrumental in bringing ABI into focus, and his work has pushed the government into creating a strategy for ABI. With the details of the strategy due to be published in June, it makes this year’s Action for Brain Injury Week even more important.

Our recent vestibular event in London welcomed case managers from across the country as we explored vestibular disorders, the effects they have and the different rehabilitation methods available.
