NEWS AND EVENTS

April 23, 2009 - Devon-based software specialists, DSCallards (www.dscallards.com), today announces DSInsight. DSInsight is the first of its kind and is a software framework that has been designed to help people with Learning Disabilities and those who support them.

Developed in partnership since 2001 with care professionals, DSInsight is a set of trusted software applications that are easy to use and bring benefits to the organisation in terms of both efficiencies and help in complying with increasing government regulations and care standards, such as Care Quality Commission.

DSInsight provides the following range of tools:

SPARS - Support Planning and Recording System - is an intuitive software application that records and manages typical information needed to maintain and support learning-disabled people within managed organisations.  Information includes support plans, assessments, medical history, critical contacts, diary events and management data.

SPARS ClearView is an add-on module to SPARS that provides a window for individuals to view their own goals, steps and achievements, which are recorded within the SPARS application. 

SMS – Staff Management System – extends the concept of time management and rostering to deliver a comprehensive staff management application that includes contract administration, sickness, holidays, training, budgets and cost analysis information.

SCENE provides a safe and secure social networking environment for people with Learning Disabilities allowing them to interact with friends and family. 

“We believe that we are pioneers in this field and have a commitment to creating a software framework that helps the Learning Disability community manage their day-to-day activities and to ultimately give carers more time to do what they do best – care for people”, said Adrian Handley, Managing Director, DSCallards.
