How Log my Care saves you time and money

Discover how Log my Care helps care providers save money, simplify care planning, and deliver real ROI with an intuitive, cost-effective platform.

Saving time and money is vital to care providers right now. Cost efficiency and operational effectiveness aren’t just nice-to-haves, they’re essential for survival. With rising staff costs, increasing compliance demands, and a growing need to deliver high-quality person-centred care, it’s no wonder that care providers need solutions that really make a difference to the bottom line.

At Log my Care, we’ve dedicated ourselves over the past ten years to building a system that saves providers resource and supports them to deliver outstanding care. More than just a digital care management system, Log my Care is a strategic tool that helps care providers save time, cut costs, and maximise value.

In this blog, we’re going to explore some of the ways we help providers save resources, and we’re also sharing our Savings Calculator so you can find out exactly how much you could save, too.

Time and resource savings through smarter care planning

Managing care shouldn’t mean hours of paperwork or digging through physical files. Log my Care streamlines the entire care planning process—from assessments to daily notes—saving care teams time and reducing the risk of missed or incomplete records.

Efficiency at the frontline

Carers can record notes at the point of care using a mobile device, meaning data is more accurate, timely, and complete. No more end-of-shift paperwork marathons. Templates and auto-populated forms further reduce duplication of effort, allowing teams to focus on what matters most: delivering quality care.

Here’s an interactive demo of how you record Logs and To-dos in Log my Care, to show you just how simple and intuitive it is. Give it a try!

Real-world example: CTTM’s transformation

Before going digital, Care Through The Millennium (CTTM) struggled with lost documents and time wasted on handwritten records. It was incredibly frustrating for the team, and they knew they needed to switch to a care management system that simplified their processes and saved them hours of time. After switching to Log my Care, they saw immediate improvements:

  • Faster, more detailed documentation
  • Streamlined sharing of records across teams
  • Real-time oversight across all services
“Now, it’s so much more effective to just log as and when that engagement has happened—and the notes are more detailed.” — Helen Hanlon, Registered Manager, CTTM

A fully integrated system that saves you thousands

One of the key advantages of Log my Care is its modular setup. Features like eMAR and Rostering can be added as needed, offering comprehensive functionality without the bloated costs of multiple disconnected systems.

More for less

Rather than juggling separate vendors for medications and workforce planning, providers can do it all in one platform. That means:

  • No extra training costs for different systems
  • No messy integrations
  • No hidden vendor fees

Why it’s cheaper in the long run

Buying multiple standalone systems can cost thousands per year in licensing and support fees. With Log my Care, providers only pay for what they need, when they need it—making it more predictable and scalable than many alternatives.

CTTM explored several systems before choosing Log my Care. Why? Simplicity, affordability, and the ability to customise the platform to fit their specific needs.

“The technology of Nourish and PCS wasn't as effective… Log my Care lets us tailor it to our service users.” — Danielle Turner, Quality & Compliance Manager, CTTM

Reducing risk and avoiding hidden costs

Poor documentation, missed medications, and disorganised staffing can all lead to costly mistakes. Log my Care helps prevent these with built-in safeguards.

Stay audit-ready, always

All logs are time-stamped and assigned to staff, making it easy to track accountability. This reduces the risk of non-compliance with regulators like the CQC, which can lead to fines or reputational damage.

Reduce paper and admin costs

Going digital doesn’t just make things faster—it also cuts material costs. In CTTM’s case, moving away from paper saved them up to £6,000 annually on stationery alone.

“We save thousands just on paper—plus now we can run site checks remotely and spot issues as they happen.” — Danielle Turner, CTTM

Low training costs and fast implementation

Intuitive for frontline teams

Thanks to our user-friendly design, Log my Care is known for being one of the easiest platforms to learn and use. Staff typically become confident with the system in record time, significantly reducing the cost and time needed for training.

Quick and easy to roll out

Implementation with other platforms can be complex and require costly consultant support. Our users tell us they’re often surprised by how smooth and fast it is to get started with Log my Care—no hidden setup fees or long delays.

Using digital tools effectively: Designed for real-world care

We regularly hear how much more our customers get out of Log my Care simply because of its intuitive interface.

Log my Care’s market-leading UI ensures that care teams are able to master the system quickly and maximise their use of the platform—unlocking real value from day one. In contrast, many providers tell us they’ve paid for platforms where they don’t end up using up to 70% of the features. That’s not just wasteful—it’s costly.

Providers report that their teams actually use Log my Care day-to-day because it feels familiar and easy to navigate. That means:

  • Higher staff engagement
  • More accurate data
  • Better decision-making
  • A stronger return on investment

Digital tools only deliver value when they’re embraced by your team. With Log my Care, that adoption comes naturally.

Digital doesn’t have to mean expensive

Care providers don’t have to break the bank to modernise. With Log my Care, digital transformation delivers tangible ROI from day one—by saving time, consolidating systems, and preventing avoidable costs.

Whether you're managing one home or a national group, Log my Care gives you the tools to run smarter, leaner, and better.
