Core Care Plans
Live in 60 seconds
Give clinicians the key information they need when they need it most. Our plans take less than 60 seconds to create and are shared instantly with every relevant NHS service.
All the data is live and if the patient changes their wishes or a clinician updates their status everyone is instantly notified.

All on one powerful plan
Everyone is always aware of the patient’s exact status as each service is working off the same live plan. We take real time data from the GP record or other systems and store it on the cloud in a single source of truth.
This is a live, interactive record that any authorised user can view, share and update no matter where they are.
Get what you need
A paramedic has very different priorities to a hospice consultant. We know that, so we give them each a personalised snapshot of the same plan. Our team can tailor different views for each type of role your organisation has.

Easy as one, two, three
Normally you have to complete over 150 data fields to start a new plan. With Core, you just fill in three. Our technology pulls all the relevant patient data straight into the plan.
Simple guided workflows walk you through the three remaining fields in under 60 seconds – and it’s shared with everyone the second you hit complete.
FAQs
Some of the data is automatically populated from the patient’s GP record to save time and improve the accuracy of the information. Examples include patient demographics, GP practice details, current repeat medications and diagnoses or problems.
More data can be added when appropriate such as focus of care, prognosis, anticipatory medication details for end of life, main carer or care worker, dementia and frailty details. Data entry is easy and straightforward so that the care plan information is built up over time.
The record is not initiated until consent is gained and the patient has been informed their record will be shared. All data is treated, shared and stored following GDPR. A data field records the type of consent for sharing the record.

- Practice Nurses
- Community Nurses

- Hospice clinicians and End of Life administrators
- Hospital clinicians
- NHS111/Out of hours
- Ambulance service

No, it is expected that the GPs or consultants will initiate the plan and complete the key mandatory fields, but other organisations will contribute to the plan over time. The GP practice and others will be notified of any updates to the plan.
