Common Problems We Fix
For Care Providers
- DSPT deadline looming and no clear evidence of compliance to submit.
- Staff sharing logins, so there’s no audit trail when CQC asks who accessed what.
- Care planning system (Nourish, PCS, Birdie) running slow or dropping mid-shift.
- No secure backup of care records, leaving you exposed if a device fails or is lost.
- Agency and night staff on personal devices with no MFA, a data breach waiting to happen.
- Family portal or rostering access breaks and no one can reach support out of hours.
For Clinics & Practices
- Patchy Wi-Fi stalls NHS e-Referral and imaging uploads.
- EMIS or SystmOne drops the connection mid-note, so updates vanish.
- Tele-health or VoIP calls crackle or cut out during patient consultations.
- NHSmail or Outlook stops syncing, hiding referral letters and lab results.
- Wi-Fi dead zones in consulting rooms freeze video consultations.
