About the supplier
Care Control
"Care Control was created by our founder and MD, Matt Luckham. After purchasing Spring House Care Home in 2014, Matt decided to develop digital care management software to help streamline and simplify processes. Created from a desire to provide essential and accurate information to stakeholders, staff members and regulatory bodies, Matt set to work developing the first version of Care Control.
Care Control has helped Spring House achieve outstanding results, with CQC rating the home as outstanding on multiple occasions over the past six years. Many other care homes and agencies were keen to use the software after recognising the transformative effect it had at Spring House. Realising it could provide fantastic value across the care industry, Matt decided to commercialise the software and Care Control as you know it was born.
Roll forward 5 years we now have 700 customers, 20,000 service users and over 50,000 active users."
