Free Wi-Fi for all<\/h3>\n

November 2015<\/h5>\n

We've installed free Wi-Fi across all of our homes - even the older ones - because it gives us the platform we need to use technology in order to improve the experience you, your loved ones and our staff have. It also allows us to introduce the innovations required to provide outstanding care.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Ultra-Safe Medication Management<\/h3>\n

August 2017<\/h5>\n

Working with Lloyds Pharmacy and Med-e-Care, we have streamlined our entire medication management system using the latest technology. Our digital system keeps you safe by helping staff as they deliver medication and, as the Pharmacy and your GP feed into the system, changes to your medication are reflected quickly and easily. Home and Corporate Management can also see everything going on 'live'.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Less Time On Paperwork, More Time On Care<\/h3>\n

September 2018<\/h5>\n

We use Person Centred Software's (PCS) electronic care system to record & plan your care. Using hand-held devices, carers easily capture the care they deliver as they go whilst being prompted about your preferences. This means no tedious paperwork for them and you get your care the way you like it. Also, your loved ones & the Management Team can see the 'live' care you\u2019re getting from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Meaningful Quality Assurance (QA) Systems Providing Peace of Mind<\/h3>\n

2017\u2013Present<\/h5>\n

We've developed a robust QA system that still allows Home Managers time to manage. We're 75% towards our goal of Home & Corporate Management digitally seeing everything going on 24\/7. Also, our independent QA Partners, NetworkCare UK, provide an expert sounding board to our development.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Oral Health Care Planning<\/h3>\n

February 2018<\/h5>\n

We believe in the importance of Oral Health in Adult Social Care. Sharon Williams, Home Manager of Swn-Y-Mor, sat on the committee that developed a comprehensive All-Wales Oral Health Care Plan. This was rolled out across the entire Handsale Group as best practice and Person Centred Software (PCS) were so impressed, they asked if they could roll it out to all their customers too. Of course we said yes.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

To help increase awareness of Dementia in our local community, we invited loved ones, friends & professional stakeholders to join our staff in taking part in Virtual Dementia Training. So you can better understand how to care for those with Dementia, this innovative training puts you in their shoes (literally) by manipulating your senses to match theirs.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>
