Bringing home care software together

Helping you to deliver high quality, person-centred care

As care has grown more complex, so has the way you do things. It’s time to bring it all together.

IQ:caremanager is the next generation of our software designed specifically for home care providers. It brings together the tools you need to plan, deliver, monitor and manage home care. Made using all of our experience, knowledge and passion for the care sector. So that you can focus on the most important thing. Care.

Earlier this year, we took on new powers under the Health and Care Act 2022 to assess local authorities and integrated care systems. I’m excited about this development and confident that the new powers will help us shine a light on best practice as well as support improvement across systems. You’ll find more information on our website about our approach to assessing local authorities and integrated care systems.

Over the next few months, we’ll start to review existing data and documentary evidence for all local authorities. These focus on two quality statements – Care provision, integration and continuity and Assessing needs. We’ll also be piloting our assessment approach in up to five local authorities, before starting formal assessments later this year. These assessments will enable us to start to understand the quality of care in a local area or system and provide independent assurance to the public of the quality of care in their area. For integrated care systems, we’ll start to form a national view of performance, initially focused on themes in the Equity in access quality statement. Going forward, we plan to pilot our approach with some integrated care systems before starting formal assessments.
