Person Centred Software makes free festive offering

Care technology provider Person Centred Software (PCS) is offering its Relatives Gateway system to all UK and Ireland care homes free of charge to facilitate communication between residents and loved ones over the festive period.

The technology provides a secure platform for messages and photos to be shared between care home residents and their families.

The Relatives Gateway platform also assists care homes by allowing carers to share real-time wellbeing updates to concerned loved ones by showing what care interactions have taken place and when.

The company recently introduced a video link add-on to the Relatives Gateway, which enables face-to-face communication through video call.

PCS said providers and families will be able to direct all communications between residents and their families to one place without having to register for any additional subscriptions

“Christmas is a time for togetherness, celebration and the sharing of magical experiences. However, the sad reality is that many families will be unable to get together this year, with the ever-changing rules of lockdown threatening to keep people apart,” added chief executive Jonathan Papworth.

“As the government encourages people to prepare for a ‘Digital Christmas’, we wanted to do our bit to ensure that families with loved ones in care homes can make sure everyone is included in their plans.”
