Revolutionising Care Through Digital Care Record Integrations with Arquella

It's becoming more evident that the seamless integration of digital care technologies plays a pivotal role in enhancing the quality of care, improving efficiency, and ensuring better outcomes.

Arquella stands at the forefront of this transformation, offering advanced integrations with leading Digital Care Record (DCR) providers like Nourish, Person Centred Software (PCS), and CareVision, creating a cohesive care ecosystem that raises residential care standards.

How Arquella Leads in Integration

Arquella's solutions—spanning our Nurse Call System, Sense, and Move technologies—are designed to integrate effortlessly with DCR platforms, enabling care homes to centralise and streamline data management.

1. Streamlined Communication Through Arquella Call

The Arquella nurse call system, when integrated with platforms such as Nourish, allows care providers to log critical data points automatically. This includes call logs, response times, and care interactions—data that syncs directly with DCR platforms for real-time updates and compliance tracking​.

  • Proactive Logging: Features like Care Clicks enable simplified tracking of actions such as repositioning or administering medication, which are then reflected in the resident's digital records​.
  • Data-Driven Insights: Care managers can access detailed reports and analytics to evaluate team performance and make informed decisions.

2. Real-Time Location Tracking with Arquella Move

Using Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology, Arquella Move enables precise tracking of residents, staff, and equipment within care facilities. This integration links real-time call-logging data to digital care records, helping staff understand patterns and dependency levels​​.

  • Enhanced Workflow Efficiency: Automatic diary entries record staff movements and resident interactions, reducing administrative burden while improving care delivery​.

3. Safety and Fall Prevention with Arquella Sense

Arquella Sense, powered by smart sensor technologies such as cogvisAI, integrates seamlessly into DCR platforms to provide real-time fall detection, absence alerts, and behavioural insights​​.

  • Fall Detection and Prevention: Sensors track and alert staff to fall emergencies and potential fall risks. These alerts, combined with contextual data from DCRs, provide a holistic view of a resident's safety.
  • Compliance and Security: Arquella's systems are designed to store and process sensitive data securely, meeting all regulatory requirements for privacy and data protection.

Integration with Nourish: A Deep Dive

Arquella's partnership with Nourish exemplifies its dedication to a unified care approach. The integration process includes:

  1. API Key Setup: Securely linking Arquella's Connect Dashboard with Nourish to enable data exchange.
  2. Bi-Directional Synchronisation: Updates of resident details and room assignments between the two systems.
  3. Comprehensive Monitoring: Alerts from nurse call points and movement sensors are reflected in the Arquella Care app directly on Nourish-issued handsets, ensuring carers have the most up-to-date information​.
  4. Call logs, attendance details, and notes are updated directly in the residents' records.

The Benefits of Arquella’s Integrations

  • Improved Resident Outcomes: By consolidating insights from multiple sources, carers can anticipate needs, reduce risks, and provide personalised care.
  • Operational Efficiency: Automated data logging eliminates manual processes, freeing staff to focus on residents.
