We are proud of our client relationships and are proud to share the observations of those who know us best and what it’s like to work with and use our products.
Fusion Client becomes the first standalone general nursing home solely for older people in England out of 18,000 registered with the CQC to achieve a score of outstanding in all five inspection areas
“People’s care plans were on a computerised system which meant they provided clear audit trails of people’s care and any changes. The care plans were detailed and included information about people’s physical support needs, as well as histories and preferences to assist staff identifying what was important to each person.”
“We saw staff were responsive to each person’s changing needs and adopted a revised care planning method to improve upon the support people required. We found care planning enabled staff to work in a highly personalised and holistic approach. A professional said they had found [the home] a wonderful home and would rate it as outstanding in all areas.”
“We found care records contained detailed and personalised care plans. We observed staff followed these in their extremely safe and caring approach to people’s related support.”
“We saw that there were assessments with information about whether the person was at risk of falls, pressure damage, or low weight. If so, advice was given to reduce these risks and all plans were reviewed monthly. We saw one person who had arrived at the home nine months ago, had gained 8 kilograms due to the enjoyment of the food.”
“Learning from incidents and accidents was seen as a priority. For example, a falls analysis was conducted in March 2017 by the provider and reviewed by a director which highlighted the annual, monthly and hourly trends along with the measures that were put in place to target all risk factors to reduce the level of falls and fall related injuries.”
“Records relating to recruitment of new staff contained relevant checks to ensure they were of good character. These included employment references and disclosure and barring checks (DBS).”
Well done to the fabulous team for achieving this result!

Congratulations Acacia Lodge!
Avery Healthcare have embraced using Fusion care planning, empowering our care teams with up to date detailed person-centred care planning. We have found the team at Fusion to be responsive in developing a bespoke care planning system suitable to our resident group, based on person-centred and a range of clinical assessments which informs our care planning process. With the care plans being available electronically on a range of devices this has made care plans more accessible. The care teams are able to write daily notes in a timely manner, right at the point of care, which has significantly improved recording. The helpdesk at Fusion have been very supportive when our homes have called for advice.
Fusion wanted to work with us and hear our ideas. The training was great; it focused on all my staff needs and capabilities, it was interactive and hands on, we didn’t feel rushed, staff were very relaxed and are able to teach others to use the system with confidence. There has been so much support with regular check-ins from Ben who has been with us from start to finish and though I have had lots of simple questions – I was never made to feel like that was a problem.
We found you to be very personable, approachable, knowledgeable, and the training was measured and well delivered. You changed the speed of the training to suit the participants, and interacted really well with the staff in the sessions.
The atmosphere was relaxed, and you made the system feel easy to use, and not a negative prospect.
I feel that the satisfaction rating from the team and myself was 10 out of 10.
We really appreciated your teaching style, and how you made the system seem so straight forward and simple.
