Merging care management and rostering seamlessly?
Log my Care’s latest addition addresses long-standing industry challenges, including caregiver matching, and lack of integration with existing care records. By linking the rostering function to their established care management system, Log my Care enables care managers to build rotas informed by real-time care data. ?
“One of the main benefits of this rostering system will be that it connects with Log my Care’s existing care management features. Keeping all relevant information for both clients and staff in a single platform will transform rostering practices.” – Szymon Kosciukiewicz , Registered Manager, Epilepsy Society?
A holistic approach to rostering is essential for quality care, as it allows managers to match caregivers with service users based on skills and needs. This kind of targeted matching supports care continuity, where the same caregivers work consistently with the same individuals, building stronger relationships and fostering trust.?
In addition, consistent caregiver assignments lead to higher job satisfaction, as familiarity with service users helps caregivers feel more engaged and confident. The outcome is a more stable work environment and reduced staff turnover.?
“Taking a holistic approach with rostering improves the quality of care by ensuring that caregivers are paired with service users based on their specific needs and skills, leading to continuity and enhanced outcomes.” – Sam Hussain , Co-founder and CEO, Log my Care?
A solution informed by real-world insights?
This rostering solution was developed through extensive research and consultation with care providers. Log my Care engaged directly with users, holding interviews and workshops to gather industry knowledge and apply it to each aspect of the tool’s design. As a result, this solution not only meets the operational demands of the sector but also enhances user experience, making rostering a seamless part of everyday routines.?
Valuable insights from the beta testing group?
To ensure this add-on met real-world needs, Log my Care collaborated with beta testers, including Szymon Kosciukiewicz of the Epilepsy Society. Their input has played an invaluable role in refining the tool.?
“The flexibility and user-friendliness of this system allow for adaptable rota-building methods suited to different service types. By consolidating all relevant information within one system, it eliminates the hassle of switching between platforms, making the entire process more efficient.”?
Distinctive features of Log my Care’s rostering system?
Built with Log my Care’s principles of simplicity, intuitiveness, and person-centred care, the Rostering add-on is designed with both care managers and care staff in mind. With contributions from rota managers who understand the intricacies of scheduling in care, the tool transforms the rostering process.?
The system’s real-time update feature is particularly noteworthy. Any rota adjustments—such as shift changes or team reallocations—are instantly visible to all relevant team members, providing up-to-date information at all times. Carers can access current rota details on the Carer App, and managers can easily share schedules via email, keeping everyone in the loop.?
Additionally, the Rostering add-on accommodates both shift-based and visit-based scheduling, making it a versatile choice for diverse care providers. Integration with the Log my Care platform grants users access to detailed service user information, enabling the creation of highly personalised rotas. The tool’s matching function also helps assign the right caregiver to each shift, enhancing care continuity and job satisfaction for team members.?
