CareScan. 
Built by the NHS for the NHS

CareScan was developed with an NHS Trust to solve real challenges in theatre environments and since 2016 has been trusted by teams to improve safety, traceability and operational performance. 

The Problem.

"Never Events continue to happen despite the hard work and efforts of frontline staff. 

Staff are struggling to cope with large volumes of safety guidance, they have little time and space to implement guidance effectively, and the systems and processes around them are not always supportive" - CQC

The Solution.

CareScan connects the information that healthcare teams need to deliver safer, more efficient care.

 

By capturing accurate patient, product and procedural data at the point of care, it creates a complete picture of clinical activity, inventory use and operational performance.

 

The result is greater visibility, stronger compliance, improved patient safety and better-informed decision-making across clinical, operational and executive teams.


From supporting MDOR readiness and device traceability to real-time NJR Implant Combination Checks and inventory management, CareScan helps organisations turn everyday data into meaningful improvements
