It involves providing care, recording detailed information and storing the document in your business\u2019s record system all while you are still with the resident. The records are normally created using a computer or remote device and then stored on a digital system. There are many benefits to working this way, for both the care provider and the resident. The ability to store care records digitally has been recognised by the NHS and several UK regulatory bodies as an important innovation in healthcare.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Point of care recording is an alternative to note-writing at the point of care and creating official records at a later time, which has been a traditional method used by care providers for many years. Although making notes is still an essential part of providing daily care, there are several <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/benefits-of-caredocs\/efficiency-benefits\/paperless-system\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">disadvantages to\u00a0relying on\u00a0handwritten notes<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> for record keeping. In contrast to using paper, the advantages of point of care recording have only been growing as technology becomes smarter. Interest and uptake of digital record keeping has seen a huge increase in recent years due to the rise of affordable products for care businesses and a push from the Department of Health and Social Care to highlight the benefits which technology can bring to a care environment.<\/span><span

time that can be better spent on delivering outstanding service to your residents. With remote technology, you can offer your residents the chance to choose which location they would like to meet to have their care recorded, which increases their comfort and promotes independence. The additional one-on-one time you secure with residents in a comfortable environment can help relationships develop faster and increase the levels of trust. Building relationships is one of the most effective ways of encouraging more open discussions about health, resulting in highly accurate and impactful care records.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">By using a single smart phone or tablet to record all your care,\u00a0the inconvenience of\u00a0carrying\u00a0around\u00a0bulky files\u00a0to rummage through\u00a0becomes a problem of the past.\u00a0And because you\u2019re\u00a0connected to\u00a0the internet,\u00a0the work you log is\u00a0stored\u00a0instantly to\u00a0your\u00a0records\u00a0system,\u00a0saving\u00a0the\u00a0job\u00a0of\u00a0writing\u00a0paper\u00a0notes\u00a0at the point of care\u00a0and\u00a0re-writing\u00a0the same details\u00a0for the record\u00a0later\u00a0in the day.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Entering the final information in real time\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/benefits-of-caredocs\/efficiency-benefits\/improving-accuracy-of-data\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">increases accuracy<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and eliminates any risk of misinterpreting or forgetting key details of conversations or service. Many modern devices now have speech-to-text functionality, opening up a new way to record information. The ability to talk instead of type encourages more participation from the resident while offering an opportunity to hear what is being said. Speech-to-text recording is not yet widely used in care environments but it shows great potential for enhancing both transparency and efficiency. Once everyday tasks \u2013 like\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/our-products\/caredocs-features\/care-features\/daily-notes\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">daily notes<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0and chart entries\u00a0\u2013\u00a0have been\u00a0recorded\u00a0they become\u00a0available to all other staff who have access to the system.\u00a0A synchronised\u00a0system\u00a0enables multiple staff to view the same information at\u00a0different\u00a0locations\u00a0and\u00a0provides\u00a0more\u00a0opportunity\u00a0to\u00a0communicate and\u00a0collaborate across the business.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">All major care regulators in the UK check records for evidence of effective care. Many individual factors are influential in helping you get the best outcome, but to comply with the highest standards, inspectors will look for evidence of a responsive and safe person-centred service where decisions are made in the best interests of the resident. Adopting a point of care recording system will give your staff the advantage of spending more one-on-one time with residents to learn more about their needs and make informed decisions regarding their care.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">There are several more potential long-term benefits that you could start to notice after a short time. Digital point of care recording has proven to save money by simply improving efficiency across the business. One of these ways involves cutting costs by maximising your current resource\u2019s potential. By removing excessive admin work and non-essential activities from the daily task list, you should see higher levels of productivity throughout the day. If your workforce is spending more time achieving the desired results, you might not need to hire that additional staff member to help out and pick up odd jobs.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Switching to a digital system could also help save money by reducing stationery costs, in addition to the effort and energy that goes into reordering and restocking the inventory. With less requirement for paper, you will be able to stop using physical filing systems, freeing up space which could be better put to use. If you\u2019re conscious about your carbon footprint, switching from paper is a great way to reduce deliveries and waste.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d07bf1f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d07bf1f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"586\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-1024x586.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-16121\" alt=\"How to point of care record - CareDocs\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-1024x586.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-300x172.png 300w, https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-768x439.png 768w, https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-1536x878.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-2048x1171.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-150x85.png 150w, https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Blog-images_Introduction-to-point-of-care-recording-3-1-600x343.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-419ee88 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"419ee88\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;_id&quot;:&quot;06615cf&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_tablet&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_mobile&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:50,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_type&quot;:&quot;scroll&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_fx_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_z_index&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_animation_prop&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;]}]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7861fe7\" data-id=\"7861fe7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e13cf8e elementor-widget elementor-widget-menu-anchor\" data-id=\"e13cf8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"menu-anchor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-menu-anchor\" id=\"needed\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6383de3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6383de3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is needed to achieve point of care recording?

You will want to ensure that your records are detailed, accurate, final, stored and secure before leaving the point of care \u2013 and your systems will have to accommodate for this. By creating a finished record at the earliest opportunity and adding it straight to a resident\u2019s care file, you will have peace of mind that the job is done to the highest standard while providing a comfortable and dedicated service. With the extra time you save from decreasing admin work, you naturally create more time that can be spent caring.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So what is realistically needed to make this happen? It\u2019s important to remember first that point of care recording should <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/benefits-of-caredocs\/efficiency-benefits\/save-time\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">decrease\u00a0administrative\u00a0work<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and not create extra steps. Coming up with your own electronic system which includes laptops and tablets with word processing software may sound like a simple solution, but there will still be admin elements that are challenging to get around. For example, if you use a laptop to record events or create care plans at the point of care, you would have to save the files in the correct folders and re-name them carefully to make it easier to search for later. Another thing to consider is how you will complete more visual documents like charts and body maps. Template documents may need to be designed, printed and scanned back into the system. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">You will also need to have a shared and secure system that is easily available to your staff but restricted so only the correct records are accessible to the people who require them. An unsecure system that grants anyone access can result in breaches of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/benefits-of-caredocs\/business-benefits\/gdpr-compliance\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">GDPR<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and UK data laws. A system that involves many variables leaves opportunity for human error and inconsistency, especially when you have large numbers of staff trying to follow the same process. There are plenty of cloud-based file hosting services that you can choose from, like Dropbox and Google Drive but usually you will pay a monthly fee if you use over a certain amount of storage. However, another service that you can use as an alternative to the above is\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/advantages-of-care-home-management-systems\/\"><span

The software should also give you the option to locate existing records easily at a later time to review or make improvements.

One major advantage of having a cloud-based system is that your users can log records and communicate across different locations and devices, which helps create an extremely flexible working environment. For example, if a resident was unable to leave their room due to illness, you could use a compatible smart phone to record notes at the point of care, and another staff member in a different location could view the notes on their laptop and send an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/our-products\/caredocs-features\/staff-management-features\/staff-messaging-centre\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">instant message<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0offering guidance.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Alternatively, you could have a central computer system set-up in a comfortable private area and bring your residents there to discuss their care. Some software providers allow you to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/our-products\/hardware-and-devices\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">hire computer systems and\u00a0mobile devices<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> to support you with the process if you don\u2019t have your own equipment. However, if you don\u2019t have access to reliable internet at your setting then there are offline options available on the market that work by connecting multiple computers to your internal network so they are able to send data to each other in real time. As long as you can provide a great service that satisfies the fundamentals of point of care recording, it won\u2019t matter if you have a cloud-based or local care management system.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1c210ac elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1c210ac\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;_id&quot;:&quot;bcddf13&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_tablet&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_mobile&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:50,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_type&quot;:&quot;scroll&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_fx_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_z_index&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_animation_prop&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;]}]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9b24ba7\" data-id=\"9b24ba7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7ac0c3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-menu-anchor\" data-id=\"f7ac0c3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"menu-anchor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-menu-anchor\" id=\"penandpaper\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ae7101 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2ae7101\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Can I use a pen and paper for point of care recording?

Digital care management systems are one form of technology which have been around since the 2000s, originally designed to make the recording process more efficient and reduce your daily workload by cutting down the number of steps needed to get from point A to point B. Care management software has evolved massively since first coming onto the scene, with new digital solutions and benefits being added regularly. Electronic record keeping and point of care recording are just two examples of innovation made possible by tech advancements that have revolutionised the way care services are provided.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Care management software has made it easier and faster to complete the majority of all care tasks, such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/introduction-to-care-planning\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">care planning<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">,\u00a0logging\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/our-products\/caredocs-features\/care-features\/charts\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">chart entries<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0and<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0reviewing historic documents<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. More specifically for care recording, paper records can be entirely replaced by digital records. Paper records have many limitations in a busy care environment and require more work to manage. For example, paper notes are generally written at the point of care and are used to create official records at a time later in the day. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">During the space between providing care and care recording it\u2019s possible the notes become damaged or misplaced during a long shift, potentially causing harm to the resident if crucial information is forgotten. It\u2019s also possible to misinterpret notes that have been rushed or written in shorthand to save time. Most of us already carry phones with us in our pockets, so if you have a mobile device at hand which is capable of sending your care records directly to a digital system, you can record the service on the spot and save a lot of precious time.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Further disadvantages to using paper become evident after the initial recording process. It\u2019s more difficult to make small edits, like fixing typos, after the record has been completed. Scribbling out mistakes, writing in the margins or using correction fluids can make the document look messy and sometimes unprofessional which could raise concerns in an inspection. You may even decide to re-write the record but this would lead to more inefficiency in the workplace. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Once a paper record\u00a0has been\u00a0completed, it\u2019s then ready to be filed away and stored. Physical records take up a lot of precious space and can take time to put away in the proper folder and find again. In comparison, digital records are instantly saved on the system, taking up no physical space and can be located easily in only a handful of clicks.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Many modern smart phones and tablets now have\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/our-products\/caredocs-features\/care-features\/speech-to-text\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">speech-to-text<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> functionality, enabling you to transcribe spoken word into text on the screen. It\u2019s used as a faster alternative to handwriting and typing and the benefits are starting to gain attention in care settings because of its compatibility with care management software. Using speech to record care puts a strong focus on transparency and communication \u2013 helping information flow easier. You won\u2019t have to keep pausing your conversations to allow time for writing and because residents can hear exactly what is being recorded, they can inform you if certain details could be improved. Speech-to-text isn\u2019t perfect, so you will still need to read through it and fix any errors, the same as you would if you wrote it yourself.<\/span><span

a dedicated smart phone or tablet. Not only will this limit confusion over whose turn it is to use a device but it will also help you keep track of who is responsible for it if it goes missing. Keeping a log of who has access to the device between a certain time will make it easier to identify where it could be.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Consider providing company-issued smart phones and tablets instead of relying on personal devices. Although personal devices are convenient, cost-effective and do the same job, they also offer extra distractions. A resident might not feel like their time is being valued if their service is interrupted by a personal phone call or text message, drawing attention away from the task at hand. If required, company-issued devices can be locked in Kiosk Mode to avoid personal use, so only certain apps such as care management software can be used. Devices supplied by the business are also usually insured, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/benefits-of-caredocs\/supplier-service-benefits\/technical-hardware-support\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">come with expert support\u00a0and can be repaired<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0without much fuss.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It\u2019s worth remembering that if you ask your staff to use personal devices for point of care recording, if that device breaks or is stolen, then that staff member will be without the necessary equipment to do their job. You should also be aware that not all personal devices will meet the minimum required specifications to use care software due to outdated technology.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/training\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Provide training<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> on how to use the devices and the point of care recording system. Lack of training and low tech confidence is a big contributor to why many care businesses return to using paper systems. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Leave your electronic devices charging when not in use. Although most devices will be able to run all day, an empty battery will cause you to lose time trying to source another device, which someone else might have needed.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Make sure you have all the information you need before finishing a record.

This means if a device is used from an unapproved location, then even with a password, the user will be denied access. CareDocs also gives you the ability to exclude certain users from the list of approved IP addresses.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Whatever\u00a0records\u00a0system\u00a0you\u00a0decide\u00a0to use, it\u00a0must\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caredocs.co.uk\/benefits-of-caredocs\/business-benefits\/gdpr-compliance\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">comply with GDPR<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">.
