CareDocs
Digital care planning
Care & nursing home managementCompliance & auditing
A care planning and home-management system for point-of-care recording, assessments and back-office management, available in cloud or local install.
The read
CareDocs, from Bristol-based Care Management Systems Ltd, pairs point-of-care recording, care plans and assessments with the business and staff management a home needs to run day to day. It is offered as CareDocs Cloud or as a local install, and has been on the market since 2008.
A family-run business serving single homes through to national groups, CareDocs is one of the longer-established names in UK care planning, a useful contrast to the venture-backed entrants that have crowded into the digital social care record category since 2020.
The Bridgehead view
Longevity is CareDocs' asset in a category chasing newness. Fifteen-plus years and a family-run identity are exactly the trust signals an owner-led care group looks for, and a story the newer platforms can't tell.
