# [Using digital care records for the first time | Log my Care](https://www.logmycare.co.uk/blog/digital-innovation-in-care-homes)

## Did you have any reservations about using a care management platform?

"At first, I didn’t really know if we should go digital and I wasn’t sure what I was getting myself into. Everyone was really apprehensive to try something new. But once I signed up, I downloaded the App from the App Store and everything after was just as simple."

## How are you finding our platform since you went digital?

"The [Carer App](https://www.logmycare.co.uk/how-it-works/app-for-carers) is fantastic! My team can reach into their pockets, pull out their phones and log the care they’re delivering right there and then. They don’t have to leave the room to go to a computer and type it up or write it down by hand on paper."

## What’s your favourite thing about Log my Care?

"The ease of recording is what I’m most pleased about – things aren’t being forgotten because care is logged immediately. Big shout out to lovely Customer Success Team who’ve helped us get used to the platform – we love the [Care Office](https://www.logmycare.co.uk/how-it-works/online-dashboard-for-managers)!"
