Led by a team of experienced health and social care professionals

Care Protect is uniquely positioned to understand the environmental and compliance issues associated with the sector.

Originally specialising in the use of CCTV systems in health and social care facilities to audit, monitor and review care delivery, the company has expanded its service range to include 24/7 ‘Live View’ for critical support when acuity levels are high and patients lives may be most at risk.

Care Protect systems ensure that care providers achieve higher standards of quality and safety, a reduction in untoward events and greater transparency for other associated professionals and stakeholders.

System data supports all patient reviews ensuring that clinical and care judgements are made in the best interests of the resident/patient and having had the benefit of visual data to support decision making.

System Versatility

Care Protect provides a spectrum of services, from consultancy and straightforward installation for self management directly, to a full gold standard system which is independently monitored and overseen by our team of health and social care professionals. We manage all aspects of that process, undertaking the initial review, assisting with a privacy assessment, meeting all stakeholders and facilitating a system demonstration, providing a full suite of documentation including legal support, and training all staff as to how the system works.

It is also possible to migrate a providers existing system and integrate that to our secure cloud platform.

Reduction in serious incidents

Over initial six month periods following system installation, retained patient data for that period has confirmed that on average providers have noted a reduction in 'untoward events' (falls, unexplained injuries/unwitnessed incidents) of 47%. That in turn has reduced the frequency of safeguarding investigations and the frequency of a subjective outcome based on 'probability'. Visual data is objective and incontrovertible.

High Risk Monitoring

Our Operations Centre is manned 24/7 by our health and social care professionals to facilitate viewing of high risk areas. That has on very many occasions prevented the serious harm of vulnerable people at a time when they were often most unwell. Our team can recognise many signs of patient distress and as a result urgently contact ward staff to make an intervention before a self harm situation arises or escalates.
