Elderly residential care provider HC-One has chosen Radar Healthcare as its quality and risk management software partner, replacing HC-One’s current corporate risk register and auditing system. 

Radar Healthcare will help facilitate continuous shared information across HC-One, which has more than 20,000 staff across the UK who deliver round-the-clock care and support to residents which includes dementia care, nursing, residential and specialist care.

Antony Hall, director of insights, assurance and governance at HC-One said: “We’ve been on a two-year journey to change the culture from being KPI driven to really understanding how learning and innovation can provide the highest quality of care to our residents.

“Radar Healthcare gives us the early warnings and a holistic view across our homes, allowing us to have proper conversations around where we can develop meaningful quality improvements. The really exciting element is the insight. Being able to use data analytics to give us a real-time view and get ahead of the curve when it comes to something that could become an issue in one of our care homes will be a real benefit to our organisation.

“The reason for partnering with Radar Healthcare from the outset is that it allows us to innovate while focusing on the bigger picture. I’m personally looking forward to the art of the possible.”

Radar Healthcare’s chief executive Paul Johnson added: “We are thrilled that HC-One has chosen to partner with us to implement the organisational learning they see as fundamental in achieving future success. Our partnership approach means we’ll work with HC-One from the start to ensure they’re making the most of the platform, and that it’s helping them meet all their goals.

“We are proud of what Radar Healthcare has achieved so far in just a few years, and for the UK’s largest care provider to work with us is a testament to our platform. We’re giving healthcare providers the tools to use data in a strategic way. As well as freeing up carers to focus on caring, not paperwork, we’re helping to drive continuous improvement throughout organisations which results in a proactive approach to resident and patient care.”
