Real-time recognition for individual carers

The care quality platform your CQC inspector wishes you had

The power of care is in the people who deliver it. Pulse lets families rate individual carers — giving you a live dashboard of competency scores, trends, and demographics to prove quality is improving, not just promise it.

CQC key line alignment
5 min
setup, no training needed

Care homes collect feedback in thank-you cards and corridor conversations. Inspectors need more than that.

The CQC expects evidence of ongoing quality monitoring and responsiveness to feedback. Without a structured system, you're relying on memory and paperwork — and hoping it's enough when the inspection letter lands.

How it works

Three steps to inspection-ready feedback

Step 01

Display your QR code

Print and place it in communal areas. Visitors scan with their phone camera — no app, no account, no friction.

Step 02

Families rate in 10 seconds

They pick the carer, give a star rating, score four competencies, and optionally leave a comment. Done.

Step 03

You track, act, and evidence

Your dashboard shows live trends, carer rankings, competency breakdowns, and demographic splits — all exportable for inspections.

Everything you need

Built around how CQC assesses care

Competency tracking

Every review scores Helpful, Friendly, Above & Beyond, and Knowledgeable — giving you structured data that maps to CQC quality statements.

Trend analysis

See how ratings change month-over-month. Demonstrate a pattern of improvement — or catch a decline before it becomes an issue.

Individual carer profiles

Every carer has their own score breakdown and review history. Ideal for supervisions, appraisals, and development planning.

Demographic breakdowns

Analyse quality by role, experience level, age group, gender, and ethnicity. Ensure standards are consistent across your whole team.

Saved dashboards

Pin your most important views — a specific chart, filter, or carer group — for one-click access. Perfect for management meetings.

Zero friction for families

No app downloads, no sign-ups. Visitors scan, tap, and rate. Higher participation means richer data for you.

CQC alignment

Evidence that speaks the language inspectors use

The CQC single assessment framework asks whether people who use services receive safe, effective, caring, responsive, and well-led care. Pulse gives you continuous, structured feedback data that maps directly to those questions.
