DepenSys, Person Centred Software’s staffing and dependency tool, has been shortlisted for the 2025 Tomorrow’s Care Awards!
We are very pleased to announce that DepenSys, our tool that transforms the staffing and dependency of care homes, has been shortlisted for an award in the prestigious Tomorrow’s Care Awards.
The Tomorrow’s Care Awards celebrate the most innovate products and services in the care industry, so we are very proud that they have recognised the achievements of DepenSys, which seeks to improve the quality of life for those living and working in care by providing care homes with the data they need to make informed decisions on staffing allocation and resident dependency.
Sarah Robinson, editor Tomorrow’s Care, said: “Our Awards present the perfect opportunity to highlight the very best that our industry can offer. From the latest technological developments in AI to training courses, time-tested solutions and unique innovations, these are the products and services that are driving our industry forward.”
Data-driven decision making for care homes
Depensys is one of Person Centred Software’s care management solutions and is part of the Connected Care Platform. It is a product that takes all of the guesswork out of staffing in care home settings. It harnesses human experience and knowledge and using sophisticated algorithms, it gives care homes a rundown of the number of hours that are needed to provide a good standard of care and then compares that with the number of hours currently given to care.
How does DepenSys work?
Managers can input information on staffing numbers, the number of beds a care home has, and the dependency of each resident which is categorised in various criteria. DepenSys then pulls all this information together and gives you as a care home the number you need to reach to know you are providing safe staffing levels to achieve good care outcomes. Read more here for how DepenSys works and how it can benefit your home.
DepenSys is especially useful in Scotland where new legislation, called the Health and Care (Staffing) (Scotland) Act 2019, has been introduced that means care home operators must ensure that there are sufficient levels of staff hours and staff experience to provide good levels of care.

The winners of the Tomorrow’s Care Awards will be chosen by the readers and will be announced in the magazine’s April issue.
