Sussex Village Home Care is a small, person-centred home care provider founded by Katy Clayton-Turner. With a strong focus on quality, continuity, and truly knowing each client, the business has grown steadily since its early days. Today, technology plays a vital role in helping the team deliver outstanding care while remaining efficient and compliant. “When we started, my plan was always to keep things small and personal,” explains Katy Clayton-Turner, Founder and Registered Manager. “We have a very small team, we don’t do visits shorter than half an hour, and we always make time for a cup of tea and a chat. We know what our clients like, dislike, even their favourite colours – it’s the small details that make it better.” Life before CareLineLive Rostering and paper notes In the early days, rostering was done on paper. “The rota...

Case Studies
Meet the people who chose CareLineLive
Four years ago, Crescent Homecare, a domiciliary care provider in the North East with 61 staff and 132 service users faced a growing challenge. The company’s operations relied heavily on manual processes and outdated systems which couldn’t keep up with the increasing demands of their business. Director Debra Robey explains, “We started with pen and paper when there were nine of us. It worked at first, but as we grew it became clear our system wasn’t safe or efficient. We needed something better.” After a year of using another software solution that failed to meet their needs, Crescent Homecare turned to CareLineLive. “After doing our research and interviews, we chose CareLineLive and it’s been transformative for us,” says Debra. Crescent Homecare has an Excellent rating with CQC, something it credits CareLineLive with helping to maintain. A streamlined digital approach Switching...
Meet Vicky Bailey, Acting Manager and Wendy Benneyworth, Homecare Coordinator at Nurseplus Southampton. Their story reflects a transformative leap into the digital age, overcoming challenges to embrace a more efficient and responsive way of managing care. The challenge: a system stuck in the past For years Vicky and Wendy relied on traditional methods - pens, paper, and notebooks - to manage service user records and run their homecare operations. Each month service users’ notebooks were collected for review often revealing delayed tasks like overdue blood tests. The system’s limitations risked critical medical needs being overlooked affecting service users’ well-being. Vicky and Wendy quickly realised this wasn’t sustainable. Yet transitioning to a digital system felt intimidating with fears surrounding unfamiliar technology and doubts about their ability to adapt. The transition: from apprehension to action Among Nurseplus branches Vicky and Wendy were...
The South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust in Northern Ireland began working with CareLineLive back in 2021 on a project to maximise resources and improve workplace efficiency in it's home care service which provides over 30,000 domiciliary care visits a week via a team of some 600+ carers and additional office staff. The Trust operates as part of Northern Ireland’s integrated Health and Social Care (HSC) system, where health and social care services are delivered together under a single structure and are free at the point of use. As a large public-sector organisation, the Trust operates within a complex commissioning, governance and accountability environment - making large-scale digital transformation particularly challenging. Prior to partnering with CareLineLive, the home care service was managed with traditional tools like spreadsheets and printed paper-based rotas delivered by post. The slowness and untimeliness of...
CareLineLive, the all-in-one home care management software provider, has announced a further expansion of its partnership with Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust (MSEFT) that is resulting in freeing 60 beds per day of patients that would otherwise remain in hospital awaiting discharge. Most hospitals in the UK suffer from what is sometimes called ‘bed blocking’. Patients well enough to be discharged are unable to go home as they are waiting for social care packages to be put in place. This can result in long waits in A&E before patients are admitted to hospital wards and long delays for ambulances as they wait for a space to become available in A&E. MSEFT began dealing with the issue of delayed discharges in 2016 via a “Bridging Service” where it started to provide short term domiciliary care services directly to patients...
