These days, running a care home successfully could be compared to completing a complex jigsaw puzzle on a daily basis.

Looking after your residents, managing your employees, keeping the resident’s families happy and the inspector satisfied.

Making sure your policies are followed and your care plans are up-to-date, ensuring that everything is recorded properly

and all within budget.

As you will know yourself, the list goes on and on and being a care home owner or manager is a very challenging

responsibility.

We may have the missing piece you’ve been looking for!

care home and we believe that our products can ease your daily duties,

EVERYDAY CARE SYSTEM What is the Every Day Care System?

The Everyday Care System (ECS) is an advanced care management solution for residential and nursing care homes. ECS will look after your resident’s care plans, assessments, contacts, medications, care notes as well as your employee’s records, rota, time and attendance, training and qualifications, and also policies and procedures, quality assessments…and much more. In order to save you and your staff time, there are many interactive sections such as pre-written care plans that only need to be allocated to a resident when required, pre-set questions and answers to several care assessments, customisable pre-written care notes …etc. ECS is now in use in hundreds of care homes around the UK and Ireland. As commented by some of customers, it has helped several care homes achieve a higher star rating while saving considerable time and paperwork, minimising mistakes and keeping all the staff fully informed.

So, why choose ECS? Most software companies will claim that their software is easy to use, however, it is only when you install the system that you realise how complex it is going to be. By taking into account the fact that most care home staff have only basic computer skills, we can genuinely claim that we have an easy to use and colourful system that people love to use. You only need one look at the Everyday Care System to see how friendly it is!

When administering care to residents, you need a solution that can run your ECS system and keep up with your active, fast-paced workday. ECS on a mobile device allows you to do everything you normally do during your shift such as administer medication, record care notes and take pictures using one single device. Conversations with your residents and their families become much more personal when you can find a report or discuss care plans and assessments straight from your mobile device. At the bedside, allow your resident to view images or read about their diagnosis. However you use the mobile device it will instantly make the resident care experience more personal, and in turn more valuable. Motion C5

With Intel® Centrino® mobile technology and high-speed wireless connectivity, the C5 integrates key functions that Nurses and Care Assistants require to be productive during the course of the day. Take it with you while doing care rounds, no matter where your work takes you, view information on your screen clearly—in bright lights during day shift, or low lighting conditions during the night shift with Motion’s optional View Anywhere® display. Designed to handle the rigorous demands of the healthcare environment, the durable C5 helps you implement your existing resident safety processes for cross contamination prevention without slowing you down. Its LCD screen is finished with a splash-proof seal, and the entire system is easily wiped off to enable disinfection.

Use the C5, wipe it off to disinfect, and keep working confidently knowing that you are helping maintain a sanitary healthcare environment.

Apple iPad2®

With a dual core processor and 10 hour battery life the Apple iPad2® is the ideal tool for bringing ECS to the point of care. Using Wi-Fi or 3G the Apple iPad2® will instantly update clients or employee details in the ECS system. Along with a ruggedized cover and the famed ‘ease of use’ the Apple iPad2® provides a cost effective solution to mobile computing.

CL900

The Motion CL900 Tablet PC is a rugged, lightweight and powerfully equipped tablet PC that has been designed, developed and built expressly to support mobile business requirements. The tablet will stand up to the most challenging environments while enabling real-time collaboration and access to information.

ECS ON THE MOVE

INTEGRATION ECS integrates with a number of other systems to enable you to run your care home successfully and to enhance the quality

of the care you provide. We have sourced some of the best products available and each system compliments the Everyday

Care System.

DP 4500 Biometric Sensor

A biometric sensor is a reliable and extremely secure way to login to ECS or clock in and out your

employees. The biometric sensor simply analyses the user fingerprint and uses a highly secure

algorithm to convert it into a unique code. The fingerprint itself is never stored and can never be re-

created back from the stored code. This allows the system to fully comply with Data Protection laws.

Courtney-Thorne—Nurse Call System

ECS is fully integrated with one of the largest nurse call systems in the UK. By retrieving the Courtney-Thorne

call system history and linking it to the resident’s room, ECS allows you to view all calls made by each of your

residents, the type of call and response time with data going straight into your care management system. This

not only saves you time, but allows you to centralise all your resident’s information in one easy to access

location.

Niko Bloom Fusion

Care registration becomes much easier with bloom since the bloom Stations – installed in the resident’s room – are integrated with ECS. With the twist-and-push dial on the bloom station, the carer gains access to the client’s care history and the scheduled tasks, which are shown on screen. The real-time connection with ECS ensures the care activities that were provided are immediately relayed to ECS, along with the duration of the task. Reducing the need to manually update the clients records in ECS.

Sage Accounts and Payroll Specifically designed for small and growing businesses, Sage 50 accounts helps you manage your customers and suppliers and day to day finances, including VAT returns and year-end accounts. It helps you stay in control of your finances and share information with your accountant, leaving you free to concentrate on running your business. Integrate your ECS invoicing to transfer the data to with Sage 50 Accounts.

Sage 50 Payroll is accredited by HM Revenue & Customs and is on of the UK’s favourite ways to pay staff. Sage 50 Payroll software is ideal if you wish to bring your payroll in-house or have more than 10 employees on the payroll. Integrate your ECS staff rota and clocking in system to transfer data to Sage 50 Payroll.
