Pukeko Blue Ltd

 

Pukeko Blue Limited (Pukeko Blue) provide a range of care options including Mental Health Care, Intellectual Disability Care, Long Term Chronic Care, Physical Health Care, ACC and much more.

The team at Pukeko Blue Limited (Pukeko Blue) had become very frustrated with their previous system. The primary system then was paper-based, and the demands associated with having accountable, up to date information available all in one place at any time was becoming very challenging.

Pukeko Blue introduced VCare into the organisation in mid-2016, focusing on the admin and clinical side of the solution with standardisation across all houses as one of the main objective.

Area Manager, CHT Healthcare Trust

“I would definitely recommend this to other facilities because you are having to hand type the information from InterRAI assessments into the care plan in VCare for example the outcome score and scale, ADLs, shortfalls, the score for cognition, everything. You are having to duplicate it in the care plan whereas now this is passed from the InterRAI assessment and its current, and valid and we are not relying on people to put everything in there. So, its pulling through most of it and then you’ve got 20% to do which is good.”

“So almost all the interRAI questions have been linked to our care plan in some way. So how it works, is that if you complete an interRAI assessment, we go into the assessments under the resident, we have the interRAI assessment there, we download it and once we do that it automatically creates a care plan for us under the care plan heading in VCare. “

“In terms of streamlining timing, especially with pre populating assessments, it makes it a lot easier, with the assessments we have prepopulated so when they go to do a report assessment, they only have to change a few bits rather than having to do a whole new assessment every time”

Aaron Wynen
Information Systems Supervisor, Presbyterian Support South Canterbury

“From a management and IT perspective we were keen on the fact that VCare was New Zealand made, with New Zealand staff and was set up for the New Zealand way of doing things. Several of the other systems were from Australia or the UK, so they, therefore, had to adapt to the NZ perspective.”

“VCare ensures that you have accurate records, especially on the village side. It also allows one point of entry, whereas before we had a multitude of different systems.”

“I would recommend VCare – very professional and it has incredible reporting functionality for us. I also like the global view as you don’t feel so disjointed. Just the incident reporting alone is going to save me hours of work.”
