Millbrook Lodge Makes the Move to Electronic Care Records
The team at Millbrook Lodge care home in Brockworth has been preparing for the launch of the new electronic care records (eCare) system and it went live last week!

The team are delighted to have the new system in place that will help them to co-ordinate, record, and plan each resident’s personalised care, and update details in real-time.
Using electronic handsets, the team at Millbrook Lodge will be able to keep secure and accurate records in a way that makes collaboration more efficient and effective. It will also remove a lot of printed paperwork that is harder to transport and share quickly. Already, the team has found that their admin time has been reduced, leaving with more to spend with our residents, focusing on them and being able to be “in the moment.”
Storing information digitally also allows for easier insight at the touch of a button that would have been very time-consuming and manual to produce with the paper-based system.
The move to these digital records for Millbrook Lodge care home near Gloucester is part of a wider strategy for the Trust to allow our care teams to spend more time delivering the personalised care we are proud of, and improve the health and wellbeing of all our residents.
So, if you are looking for care in Gloucestershire, give us a call at Millbrook Lodge care home in Brockworth on 01452 863783. We would be delighted to welcome you to have a look around our home and see our eCare in action.
