Log my Care, a care management platform that supports over 20,000 people every day, has launched an integrated rota management tool.
The platform provides access to rota management in “one care-specific digital platform”, allowing providers to schedule visits and shifts in the same place. The company highlights that the tool is designed to be used in a range of care settings, with Log my Care’s Rostering Add-on ensures service users are matched with the carers they need based on skills preferences “improving continuity of care and enhancing person-centred care delivery”.
By integrating rostering with care management, Log my Care added this: “eliminates the need for multiple platforms that are tricky to connect. Ensuring that important information is never missed, reducing administrative burdens, and facilitating rapid adjustments to rota changes, all through an easy-to-use digital interface.”
- Data-driven matching: The system smartly suggests matches to care managers, so carers are matched service users based on skills, availability, and user needs, using real-time data to deepen relationships between carers and the people they support.
- Agile response to changes: Rostering enables quick responses to staffing changes or service user needs, resulting in care delivery that is uninterrupted and adaptive. Care managers can create and update the rota, then publish when you’re ready to inform the team. With access to the Carer App, carers will be able to see their upcoming rota on their home screen.
- Reduced administrative tasks: Combining rostering and care management in one platform reduces administrative tasks and the potential for gaps in care and overlapping events. Features such as best suggested carers mean no more manual searching to match up carers’ availability and skills, and the single view of shifts and visits saves hours on looking through and updating multiple documents. This allows care providers to focus on the quality of care rather than backend operations.
- Deepening relationships between carers and the people they support: Log my Care’s Rostering Add-on is designed with service users in mind. It prioritises data-driven skills matching based on whether they’re part of an assigned care team and carers’ relationship and familiarity with service users, meaning care providers never have to worry about consistency of care delivery. This deepens relationships between carers and the people they support, increasing person-centred care delivery and job satisfaction.
Sam Hussain, Co-founder & CEO at Log my Care, commented on the launch: “We designed our Rostering Add-on to eliminate some of the challenges care providers were facing with existing solutions. Now we can offer a seamless connection between the rota and the care record, and match carers’ skills with service users’ needs. This all serves to improve continuity in care and enhance person-centred care delivery.”
