Introducing Access Evo

Care Planning is now enabled with Access Evo.

When a member of the care team is covering a visit for the first time, they can ask Navigator what they need to know about that service user and get their preferences, recent concerns, medication notes and the last carer's flags in seconds, without opening a single separate system.

When a new referral arrives with a lengthy PDF from a previous provider, Evo Researcher turns it into a structured draft care plan within minutes. Documentation that used to fill a shift now takes a fraction of the time.
