About Camascope
Camascope is a market-leading health-tech platform innovator, empowering social care workers, carers, and putting residents first with its electronic medication management technology. Camascope’s market-leading Electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR) platform has become the gold standard for medication management. Every month, our ecosystem helps care staff to administer over 17 million doses of medication to over 60,000 social care residents in the UK.
As demand for social care increases and residents present with more complex health needs, care homes are under unprecedented pressure to maintain safe and effective medication management. This has led to a rise in medication errors, which often lead to serious harm and avoidable fatalities. The current systems in place often lack the precision, oversight and usability required to meet these evolving challenges. With medication errors being responsible for 12,000 deaths across the NHS every year and costing the NHS up to £1.5bn annually, digitisation of social care and the service Camascope provides, has never been so important.
Camascope grounds its products in a deep understanding of these critical issues, designed to address the growing complexity of care provision by improving resident safety, streamlining workflows and reducing risk across the wider health and social care system. Our commitment to quality and compliance is demonstrated through robust security measures and industry-leading certifications that establish us as a trusted partner in healthcare.
Camascope’s eMAR platform is integrated with the entire UK healthcare ecosystem, including connections to pharmacy software (PMRs), GP systems, and care planning solutions. Our point-of-care tablet and mobile app support the caregiver everywhere they go, significantly reducing potential medication errors in all social care settings by making sure that the right resident gets the right medication at the right time through features including barcode scanning for medication and highly customisable safety configuration down to the medication level. Camascope can reduce round times by over 25%. eMAR also has the potential to prevent 30-50% of all adverse drug events (ADEs).
The web-based medication portal further enhances the operation and management of care providers by enabling full end-to-end medication ordering, tracking, and checking in, saving hundreds of hours yearly on chasing medication. Managers can access a full dashboard that immediately shows the status of medication administration and highlights missed medications to managers. Through Camascope’s analytics tools, managers can further drill into the details of every aspect of their medication operation on the ground and discover patterns to further improve management, all from a single platform.
Camascope has played a pivotal role in advancing digital transformation across the independent health and care sector. By equipping care providers with intuitive, scalable and clinically robust medication management tools, we’ve helped raise the standard of care and safety for tens of thousands of residents.
Camascope isn’t just a tech platform, it’s a response to a growing crisis in care delivery, helping to ensure that increased and complex demand doesn’t come at the cost of patient safety.
