The benefits of using Nourish

Embracing digital care management offers many benefits to support you to deliver exceptional care.

Embracing digital care management offers many benefits to support you to deliver exceptional care. You can also gain a comprehensive overview of your service and boost compliance effortlessly. By streamlining your operations, our digital platform gives you all you need to elevate the quality of care to improve the lives of people you support every day.  

Accurate recording of care everyday

Our easy-to-use platform allows recording at the point of care through desktop or mobile, saving time and allowing for more accurate notes. Through the touch of a button, care can be recorded as it happens. It means information doesn’t get missed or forgotten, and care teams don’t have to spend hours writing down their notes when they next get a chance. 

With more accurate notes, comes more accurate care. Notes recorded digitally or via our innovative speech-to-text function, can be easily read by all the care team. This saves time figuring out a member of staff’s handwriting.  

When staff record notes immediately after providing care, it’s fresh in their minds. It allows senior members of the team to view notes and any trends. This means they can pick up and act on information and any gaps can be quickly identified. Trends like weight loss, food and fluid management and malnutrition are more easily identifiable and acted upon.

Save time and give more person-centred care

Leave time-consuming paper records behind. As care notes are logged digitally on the go with mobile devices, your care teams will have more time to dedicate to delivering person-centred care.  

All the information about the people you support can be accessed whenever you need it. Your care teams will have care plans, care notes, handovers, daily tasks and alerts literally in the palms of their hands. Time will no longer be wasted looking for a file and reading through all the handwritten notes. 

Saving time is a crucial benefit that means you can spend more time doing what you do best, caring.

of customers feel very confident using Nourish after training

By adopting Nourish’s digital care planning platform, you can spend time on the things that matter. Staff in Leicestershire County Care Ltd (LCCL) Harvey House, tell us they save an average of an hour a week while care team leaders save at least two hours a week. In another LCCL home, Whittingham House, the team saves around 20 minutes per carer per week. With 10 carers at any one time, this works out at 200 minutes per week – just over 3 hours of time saved. This can be used to care for the people they support.

Things are less likely to get missed by using Nourish. Our carers are able to flag up if someone hasn’t eaten, easily and quickly drawing our attention to this. The staff now have more opportunity to document what has happened there and then.

Full-service overview

Having a full and comprehensive view of your service is crucial. Using Nourish gives you, your managers and senior management team a bird’s eye view of every aspect of your service. You can observe trends from across your service or whole group, providing consistency. It helps you to recognise where care is going well so you can praise and reward staff, helping morale. It also shows any gaps where training is needed.  

Before Leicestershire County Care Ltd went digital, senior managers would have to visit each home to read handwritten notes. An extremely time-consuming task where it was hard to spot trends. Now, they can see everything through the digital platform. From alerts and warnings, to ensuring standards and consistency.

Increase your regulator rating

Using technology in social care is vital to benefit the people you support and help them live life to the fullest. Regulatory bodies, the Care Quality Commission (CQC) especially, recognises that good quality records underpin safe, effective and high-quality care. That’s where we come in.  

By using all the features and tools that come with our platform, it will help you to give clear information to the right people when they need it. Having the ability to give evidence to regulatory bodies and your local authority quickly and efficiently is a great benefit of using Nourish. It can even have a positive effect on your rating.  

With reports pulled instantly at the click of a button, the key information is available in an easy-to-read dashboard. You can give temporary secure access to regulatory bodies and local authority compliance inspectors. As remote inspections are taking place more frequently, this will save you an immense amount of time.

All information in one place

Using a digital platform gives you a centralised care management system. You can access records, care plans, medication records, and other critical information all in one place. With care staff recording updates on care plans and health status at the point of care, you have real-time oversight of what is happening in your service.  

Our digital platform gives you insights and reports on your service’s performance, such as tracking medication administration and completion of care plans. By having this vital oversight, you can identify areas for improvement and make informed decisions about how to allocate resources and improve care.   

Never lose access to important records

It’s crucial to have access to care records and vital information whenever you need them.  If your internet goes down or you need to access information without a connection, we’ve got you.  

The Nourish app continues to work offline. Care notes are timestamped when they’re written, meaning carers can keep recording and notes are automatically uploaded when your internet is restored.  

Our offline functionality means your team can continue providing the best level of care and record it on the go in any situation. 

Benefits of offline access: 

  • Record care even when the internet drops 
  • Access and record notes in internet black spots  
  • Carry out initial assessments while offline 
  • Record on the go when out in the community

Better quality of care

By using digital care planning, you can make sure that your staff have all the information they need to provide the best possible care. They can access information about the people you support quickly and easily in real-time.

Staff will all have the latest information to provide consistent care that’s personalised to everyone. Nourish sends alerts and warnings such as when medication has not been administered or when a care plan needs reviewing. It means that nothing falls through the cracks.

Enhanced security

Keeping paper-based records secure can be a challenge. Records can be lost or misplaced, and they take up space. With our digital platform, you can be sure that your records are secure and protected.

You can control access to the platform and track who has uploaded the records. Our industry-leading device management means Nourish can only be accessed on authorised devices, giving you that extra layer of security and peace of mind.

Quickly input and update information, generate reports, and track progress. This can help you save time, manage resources and improve the quality of care.

Access information anytime, anywhere

One of the biggest benefits of using Nourish is that you can access the information you need anytime, anywhere.

This is especially helpful if you have multiple locations or if you have staff who work remotely.
