CareDocs was founded in 2008, when two care home managers found that the demands on them to manage all the aspects of a care home could be reduced by greater use of technology.

They developed a computerised system that improved efficiency by removing the need to check up on many of the routine tasks, as automatic reminders ensured that they were always aware of what needed to be done. They also designed and built an innovative approach to care planning, which used a comprehensive series of questions to complete an assessment, and then used this information to automatically generate a care plan.

In the early stages, a few local care homes expressed an interest in the system and word quickly spread about the benefits to care home managers. Within a short space of time, more and more care homes became committed CareDocs users, and hence the company was truly established.

Today, the company continues to grow and prosper. With almost 400 care homes using CareDocs on a daily basis, a great deal of effort is directed to continuous improvement, along with keeping CareDocs up to date with current legislation and standards.
