Everything you need to know about AlwaysReady Care
What is AlwaysReady Care?
AlwaysReady Care is a simple tool that helps care homes record and organise evidence of the care they provide. It keeps all your records in one place so you are always ready if CQC comes to inspect. Everything runs in your browser and your data stays private.
Quick Start
- Sign in — Use your email, Google account, or try as a guest to explore.
- Record evidence — Go to "Record Evidence" and use a template to quickly document care activities like medication, personal care, or meals.
- Get it reviewed — Seniors and managers review evidence. Only approved records count towards your compliance score.
- Stay ready — Check your Compliance dashboard to see your readiness score, spot gaps, and generate inspection packs when needed.
