Comprehensive care management for long-term health

When accidents or illness have a profound impact on everyday life, those affected often need to focus fully on their recovery and don't have the strength to cope with all the other steps they need to take. SWICA care managers take them by the hand and focus on a common goal: the long-term stabilisation of their health to enable rapid reintegration into society and work. The sooner individual solutions can be found together, the higher the chances of successful reintegration and the less time is spent off sick.

Entering the care management system at an early stage plays a critical role in the healing process and long-term reintegration. Our experience is backed up by numerous studies: an illness can become chronic after just a few weeks of sick leave, which makes the hurdle of returning to work seem all the greater for the person affected. This can delay a speedy return to working life.

To avoid this, our care managers start working with all those concerned as soon as possible to find a custom-fit solution for successful reintegration. For example, this could include adjustments to the workplace or coordination of the medical treatment plan.

When someone is unfit for work, there are many people involved in various roles during the recovery process. SWICA care management makes sure this process runs smoothly, ensuring efficient and transparente coordination between all parties involved. The self-empowerment of the person who is ill is key to the success of the agreed steps. This could include discussions with the ill person and the employer or with medical professionals, or contact with other institutions. Confidentiality is our absolute priority.
