Whilst many of our customers take advantage of an ‘all-encompassing care system’, we offer a modular approach to fit the requirements of each individual organization. Popular modules include; |

– Access Medication Management Pharmacy integrated eMAR system with alerts and warnings to avoid meds errors and save time administering. |

All of our modules are implemented via ‘Access Workspace’ which brings them together in a single platform to manage the care organization. This makes them easier to implement, and saves you time and cost. The system is cloud based, and offers a number of offline working options to ensure that data is safe, secure, backed up – but still available to the right people when required. This ensures that nothing can get lost or missed, and supports your ability to provide compliant records. |
The modules / systems are all designed to help you to meet your regulatory responsibilities, and to evidence the good work you do with the People you support. All of our systems are widely inspected by the CQC and almost invariably help with maintaining and improving inspection outcomes. The system(s) will save you time – whether it’s quicker & more person centric care notes, more interactive rostering, more engaging eLearning content, simpler & more effective auditing, or risk reduction in MAR processes – your staff will be able to spend less time on admin and more time with the People you support. This has a real and measurable impact on the emotional wellbeing for both People and Staff. Role based access means that anyone in the care pathway can be given access to the system but will only see the information you want them to see. This access could even be extended outside of your organisation if required, to the family, other healthcare professionals, and of course the person themselves. This helps you to be responsive and inclusive, and reduces the risks involved in multidisciplinary team-based care records.
