        Eastern Fostering Services has just launched a significant service enhancement which really brings fostering into the 21st Century. Partnering with Intuitive Care we have introduced a new back office system which will improve child outcomes, simplify and reduce the time taken on paperwork for Foster Carers, assist in training and development, and allow easy access to information on the go.

        What is Intuitive Care?

        Intuitive Care have developed a fantastic app, accessible from any device, which consolidates all the paperwork that so commonly is the bane of Foster Carers’ lives! Many Foster Carers are used to having to work with clumsy, inflexible systems for loading and viewing key paperwork. Intuitive Care uses a simple app to reduce the time and burden posed by paperwork. It offers:

        • An easy way to write and submit weekly logs, including photos of important events or everyday activities, real time, as simply as sending a WhatsApp message
        • Quick access to all the information you might need whether you’re at home or on the move
        • Receive, sign and share documents such as review paperwork, supervision notes, training documents and safer caring plans
        • Capture and submit all your expenses
        • View your remittances and statements
        • Easily report notifiable events as they happen
        • Support and structure to our robust matching processes

        What do Foster Carers think of Intuitive Care?

        “For someone who’s not very tech savvy, as you well know, I’m delighted to say this is very easy to use.”

        “I’ve used many different fostering systems and this is by far the easiest. I love it!”

        Our service enhancement not only makes life easier for our Foster Carers, it also enables us to capture all the information we need in one place. In turn, this allows us to improve outcomes by spotting trends and being alerted when there are problems. It means we can get a truly holistic view of our children and our carers, allowing us to build on our already outstanding service and bring fostering into the modern age.

        If you’d like to find out more about the service we offer here at Eastern Fostering Services, please contact us, we’d love to speak to you!
