From One Digital System to Another

Implementation is always a worry. You introduce fundamental changes to working routines for staff and residents. It’s not something that’s done by the flick of a switch. You need to spend a bit of time configuring and setting up the system.

For it to be a successful transition you even need staff to lean into the process. Well, buy-in from everyone. And a partner that doesn’t leave you to your own devices (pun intended).

Tim explains how their implementation was:

“Implementation was easier than expected. Having Neha (Sekoia’s Head of Customer Success) on-site for two days including an overnight session to train the night staff meant that an intensive but short induction was provided to everyone. Excellent engagement from our staff helped a lot and I think everyone sensed this was a great opportunity to improve things.”

We truly believe it’s important to be available for questions and advice during the first day. And onwards of course. That’s why we offer to stay the night. Onsite or online. So the night shift is also comfortable with the new changes.

Julie Eagleton, Care Delivery Coordinator at Birtley House elaborates:

“From the start, it was just easy to use, even for me as one of the older members of the team I can find my way around it! Even those staff members who were originally advocating a return to pen and paper are now fully on board.”
