Care planning

Our care planning solution allows electronic care plans to be created and tailored to patient needs and supports staff to record care. It helps with planning care in a holistic and collaborative manner, using agreed local and national guidelines, in conjunction with NICE, the Nursing & Midwifery Council and NHS Digital, to ensure patient care is optimised.

The module helps users and patients to  identify, manage and prepare a suitable plan to reach desired outcomes, be they personal or defined by admission. It ensures that a patient gets the same standard, quality and accuracy of care regardless of which members of the staff are on duty.  As a ‘living document’ it encourages multidisciplinary engagement with the patient and creates a timeline of activity which is easy to review, edit and navigate.

A patient’s care plan is developed using a template, focusing on the essentials of care including nutrition, mobility, sleeping, tissue viability, falls prevention, psychological needs, recording of clinical interventions, communication and sexuality.  Its flexibility allows for additional needs, goals and activities to be developed collaboratively with the patient, ensuring the care given is tailored to the person. 

Care planning seamlessly integrates with other solutions and user base.  It reduces the need for information being recorded on paper and makes it much easier to track the status of a plan as it develops.
