Avon Park Residential Home: Empowering Caregivers with Electronic Care Management Software

Alex Nethersole, care home owner of Avon Park Care Home, purchased Cura in October 2016 as he knew that using a comprehensive electronic care management software would help him and his team evidence the care they were delivering in a consistent manner.

"I looked at all of the care home management system on the market but decided to go with Cura Systems as they provided a superior product demo. They really understood and listened to what I was looking for."

Integrated Care Plans

"Cura was the easiest to use, visually was the most pleasing and had better features as standard functionally than any of the other care planning systems."

Cura helps us evidence our care delivery to the CQC.

“The real-time information we have from using Cura means we are able to evidence, at the touch of a button, how we are delivering our care with a fully digital audit trail. We use Cura’s images, videos and electronic care planning tools to evidence delivery of care to the CQC. In the eyes of the Care Quality Commission, if you didn’t record it, it didn’t happen.”

Cura Systems is reducing risk.

“Cura also helps us to capture incident evidence and record observations about residents which are immediately available. Prevention is better than any cure. The care workers cannot start another task before providing mandatory answers to Cura. This not only protects me but also reassures my care workers that they have done everything required.”

Cura supports connected personalised care.

“I love the fact my team can securely check on residents when we are off-site, communication with all my workers has improved since using Cura. We also have the ability to offer Cura Kin to our resident’s family members to reassure people that the agreed care package is being delivered.”

Cura has exceptional system reliability.

“Cura is secure, reliable and robust. We have never had any technical issues.” Cura is easy to use for all staff. “The reaction from all of our team, whether they are delivering care or working in the office is how easy it is to use. As the system is so intuitive we have found even the most technically scared staff are taking to Cura with ease. Even the reaction from our residents has been positive.”

Cura offers exceptional value for money.

“Cura is the most comprehensive care management solution in the market, I didn’t want a lot of different digital systems that were fragmented and all connect together. This leads to more potential issues. I wanted one system, with the widest functionality and this is why I chose Cura.”

Cura is helping management with future developments.

“We have been able to create a meaningful bespoke management dashboard for reporting. I use various reports regularly – I can go into Cura at any time, any place and see what I need to know. It was such a relief to get rid of the old paper reporting we were previously using.” The Cura Systems team offer the most diligent support. “From implementation to continued system support the Cura Systems team are proactive, responsive and great fun! I can always talk to a person, every member of staff is a pleasure to deal with and I can trust the team as I always get an honest response. The team listen to our comments and ideas, some of which have come to fruition through the continuous development and improvement of Cura.”

“Working in the care sector can mean uncertainty with shrinking budgets and constant scrutiny from the regulators, public and the media. I can honestly say that utilising Cura has enabled me and my team to gain a competitive advantage. Cura is now essential to the running of Avon Park Care Home.”
