GoldCare Selected to Integrate Client Information in Central LHIN for Community Support Service Agencies
Waterloo, Ontario – December 19, 2008
Campana Systems Inc. is pleased to announce that the Central Community Support Services Network (CCSSN), through the Capacity Building Initiative, has selected Campana’s award-winning software, GoldCare, to integrate client information for their home and community support programs across central Ontario.
CCSSN developed the Capacity Building Initiative to address the important need for infrastructure development across the community support sector. Ontario’s Central Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) is providing financial support for this initiative to support the growing demand for seniors’ services. With 44 agencies collaborating, the Capacity Building Initiative also allows organizations to work together to meet the system level goals of the Central LHIN, such as implementing the interRAI Community Health Assessment to establish a common assessment protocol.
"Following evaluation of several solutions and extensive due diligence, GoldCare was selected because there was a strong fit on functional requirements, and because GoldCare has an excellent reputation in the marketplace. We view GoldCare as a strategic partner that will help us to meet our business objectives both now and in the future", says Deborah Egan, Director of the Capacity Building Initiative of the CCSSN.
GoldCare provides community-based professionals with a versatile home and community support management solution to manage and support the many aspects of community care and services: client and employee management, scheduling (day programs, transportation, and homemaking services), volunteer management, a standardized interRAI-CHA assessment, MIS Reporting, and more. Using GoldCare, information can be shared across multiple applications through a single interface, providing integrated and streamlined data access via a hosted environment.
"We are proud that the Central Community Support Services Network has chosen GoldCare for this groundbreaking project to streamline their healthcare information infrastructure, and that GoldCare will play a role in their plans to develop and grow community care and home support for seniors in the Central LHIN", says Grant Roberts, President of Campana Systems.
