Every day

What your office did today, without asking.

A call is logged once. It shows on the client, the staff member, the daily log and the task list. A morning brief shows what needs you now.

Office time on the weekly governance report, from about 10 hours.

Built around the CQC framework. Readiness from the records is capped at Good, because only a person can judge Outstanding.

Inspector access

Give an inspector what they need, and nothing more.

Insight

Hub does the work. Insight reads it.

Insight reads a client's whole file, from the assessment and care plan to the risk assessments, care reviews and weekly notes, and shows you where they do not join up. In a fraction of the time it would take a person.

Mrs Hargreaves, full file check

4 checks · 1 to act on now

  • Care plan does not match the visits

    Weekly notes show two carers at 9 of 14 visits. The care plan says one. Arrange a care review, or amend the care plan to match what carers are now doing.

  • Missing risk assessment

    The assessment mentions two falls this year. There is no falls risk assessment on file.

  • Review due

    The care plan was last reviewed seven months ago, and the needs in the notes have changed since.

  • Joined up

    Medication in the care plan matches the assessment and this week's MAR chart.

Arrange care reviewMark as reviewedExample data.

Assessment to care plan

Checks that what the initial assessment found is carried into the care plan.

Care plan to care reviews

Checks that the care plan matches what was agreed at each care review.

Weekly notes

When it audits the notes, it tells you if a care review is needed or the care plan should change to match the care being given.

Risk assessments

Checks the right risk assessments are on file and up to date for what the file shows.

Staff files

Nothing is sent until a person has reviewed it. Every draft stays marked "Insight draft, not yet reviewed" until someone keeps or edits it.

From £79 a month, with a weekly allowance of Insight checks. Everything else in Semper Hub is not counted.

Policies

Your policies, in the same place.

Versions and review dates sit with the rest of your records. The policy library, filled from your company details and checked weekly against changes in law and guidance, is coming soon.
