Howden Care

Safety, prevention and injury management

Empowering organisations to create resilient, thriving and sustainable workplaces.

Howden Care brings a consultative approach to injury management and prevention, delivered by the most experienced practitioners. We do this by putting a person front and centre of our service, and embedding an experienced, and dedicated case manager within your business.

Our case managers are specialist health service professionals, who manage each referral and work with both employee and manager to develop an action plan and oversee the strategy driving each referral.

Further, this is underpinned by our industry leading data and analytics capability, which has a significant impact on improving claim outcomes, reducing costs and improving the employee experience.
