The Advantages Of Using Care Home Software Solutions

Discover the reasons why you should be replacing your paper and spreadsheet-based processes with a software based system, including the benefits and features of care home software solutions.

Only one person can access spreadsheet-based information at a time; this can cause delays, force people to work from copies, and make your staff unproductive, and neither solution provides automated tasks or clear visibility and control of information, or multi-person access.

  • Record and store resident information.
  • Asset management.
  • Manage staff data including holidays, training, Reviews, and absences.
