The best care planning software in the UK According to users

Every year since our launch in 2013, we have spoken extensively with existing and potential care providers about what they think about our Digital Care Planning Software 

See below a selection of customer reviews detailing why our digital care planning software is the best. 

We decided to switch to Person Centred Software's Digital Care Planning Software many years ago, and it was worth every penny; it's by far one of the best digital care planning systems I've ever used 
 
Alison Redhead
Registered Manager, Minster Grange Care Home 
 

We have used Person Centred Software’s eMAR and Digital Care Planning System for the past couple of years. Both systems comply with the key lines of enquiry (KLOE) and help us to reduce home costs. The Digital Care Planning System helps our group to record accurate real-time information about the care we provide, and the eMAR system helps us deliver the right medication at the right time. It also helps us with evidence and reporting and greatly reduces any incidents of risk. What I love about the Digital Care Planning Software is the information we gather is instantly available when we need to present it to entities such as CQC. Instead of doing all the paperwork and having to cross reference and archive it, we now have the time to do the things we want to do, and that’s care for our residents. This software is a game-changer, and I highly recommend it to other care providers.

We have been using Person Centred Software's Digital Care Planning System for a number of years now, and it keeps getting better and better! The Digital Care Planning Software is able to capture essential data and generate reports that were able to evidence to CQC, and we were outstanding in all 5 key areas. The software is easy to use, and the people at Person Centred Software are helpful, friendly, always willing to assist, and motivated to drive continuous improvements. It is undoubtedly the best Care Planning Software I've seen on the market.

Using Person Centred Software's Digital Care Planning System has been a positive experience for our organisation. It's the best system I've used by far! The 'Plan Care Day' feature ensures nothing gets missed, and overall our carers are capturing far more information than before. We are able to easily access this information to share with other health and social care professionals, the care plans are more detailed, and the reports within the system are assisting us in identifying patterns and trends during our audit processes which is all great evidence to show CQC

Person Centred Software's Digital Care Planning System is fantastic and the best Care Planning Software I've ever used. I can tap into the system to see what's happening across the home - it's so easy to use and keep track of things. It gave us more time with residents and helped us with our CQC inspections and compliance.

In my opinion, Person Centred Software offers the best digital care planning software in the UK; the system is ahead of the market compared to other care management systems, and the depth and quality of the data on the system are amazing, and the system enables our care teams to deliver high-quality, safe and person-centred care.

We have used Person Centred Software's Digital Care Planning Software for about 7 years. The software has easy-to-use icons for documentation for the clinical staff and useful audit functions for the managers. The support is also excellent, and Person Centred Software appreciates ideas from the clinical team. I haven't encountered anything better than Person Centred Software's Digital Care Planning System; it's the best system I've ever used, and I highly recommend it.
