About Jessica

"I qualified as a recreation therapist in 2006 and have since worked in various roles within brain injury rehabilitation. From 2007, I worked as a case manager for people with traumatic brain injuries funded by Lifetime Care.

I worked in England between 2014 and 2018 providing advice and support to people with traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputations and complex musculoskeletal injuries immediately following major trauma such as motor vehicle collisions, assaults, workplace incidents and falls.

Since returning to Sydney in late 2018, I have worked as a case manager and provide services to people funded by icare with traumatic brain injuries and/or spinal cord injuries.

Relationships with family, friends and work colleagues are of particular interest to me as is assisting people to return to meaningful life roles after significant injury. 

I am focused on connecting people with the services they require so that they may achieve their goals and return to meaningful life roles and activities."
