And thanks to a reserve list functionality, cancelled bookings can be re-offered quickly to maximise bed occupancy and support income generation from funded bookings.
Highest levels of security
With true two factor authentication, continuous back ups, data held in the UK and hosted in one of the world’s leading data centres which is N3 accredited for interoperability, The Care Database provides the assurances you and patients need on security and regulatory requirements.
The Care Database is an intuitive, efficient and secure web-based system to help healthcare professionals revolutionise their care management and spend more time delivering high quality care.
It was designed by healthcare professionals for healthcare professionals, to help them deliver better care in a variety of settings – including care homes, hospices, respite centres, hospital wards and surgeries.
Exceeding the functionality and accessibility of any other care system on the market, the idea for The Care Database was the brainchild of Shooting Star Chase – a leading children’s hospice rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission. It developed from the need for a modern care database and the lack of options that fitted what the hospice was looking for.
The list of benefits that The Care Database provides is extensive, but the time it gives back to professionals to do what they do best – deliver high quality care – is at the heart of the system.
The Care Database is competitively priced and full implementation, training and maintenance is available from the team who developed and use the system.
