Iplanit by Aspirico

"iplanit is a care planning software solution designed to help providers evolve beyond 'time and task' approaches, to an outcome-focused person-centred approach through its unique architecture built around the person, putting them and their choices at the heart of their services, and allowing staff and providers to evidence the impact of their services over the inputs.

Empowered by the Person Portal, people supported can add 'invited guests' including family, friends and their wider circle-of-support into their support plans and communications, promoting an inclusive and collaborative culture.

The Core iplanit system contains everything a provider needs to 'go digital' with minimal fuss, aligned with national regulatory data standards, preparing providers for the continued integration of health and social care services."
