    Introducing CRM in Care Control Cloud: manage enquiries and maintain occupancy

    For care providers, maintaining occupancy is essential.

     

    An empty bed or room does not just mean unused space. It means lost revenue, uncertainty for the future, and pressure on your service to find the next admission quickly.

    Many providers manage enquiries and potential admissions across several places. Emails, phone notes, spreadsheets, or even paper forms. This can make it difficult to keep track of who has enquired, where they are in the process, and which rooms may become available.

    That is why we have introduced CRM within Care Control Cloud.

    This new feature gives you a simple, central place to manage enquiries and potential residents, helping you stay organised, plan ahead, and maintain occupancy within your service.

    What is CRM?

     

    CRM stands for Customer Relationship Management.

    In simple terms, it is a system that helps you capture, track, and manage enquiries from people interested in your service.

    Within care, this usually means:

    • Prospective residents

    • Family members making enquiries

    • Professionals referring individuals to your service

    Instead of managing this information across different systems, CRM keeps everything in one place inside Care Control.

    This means you always have clear visibility of potential admissions and the current status of each enquiry.

    Why CRM matters for care providers

     

    Occupancy plays a huge role in the financial health of a care service.

    When enquiries are difficult to track, providers may experience:

    • Missed follow ups with prospective residents

    • Delays in completing pre assessments

    • Uncertainty around upcoming admissions

    • Empty rooms that could have been filled sooner

    CRM helps solve this by giving managers a clear admissions pipeline, making it easier to see who has enquired, what stage they are at, and what action is needed next.

    The result is better organisation, improved visibility, and fewer empty beds or rooms.

    What you can do with CRM in Care Control Cloud

     

    The CRM feature has been designed specifically for care providers and integrates directly with Care Control Cloud. With CRM you can:

    Capture and track enquiries

    Record enquiries from prospective residents or family members and keep all related information in one place.

    Manage potential admissions

    Track individuals from their first enquiry through to pre assessment and admission decision.

    Organise pre assessments

    Record and manage assessments for potential residents so your team can review and plan effectively.

    Maintain visibility of occupancy

    Understand upcoming vacancies and potential admissions so you can plan ahead.

    Share information about your service

    Keep details about your home, facilities, and available rooms ready to share with prospective residents.

    We have introduced CRM as an optional feature within Care Control to give you more flexibility and choice in how you manage your service.

    We work with a wide range of care providers, and we recognise that not every service will need a full CRM solution. Because of this, CRM is available to all services as an optional feature at an additional cost, rather than being included as standard.

    This means you can choose whether it is right for your service, based on whether you would benefit from better enquiry management, improved occupancy tracking, and a more structured admissions process.

    Our goal is to give you the freedom to decide what works best for your service. CRM is there if you want it, and you can explore its value through a free trial before making any commitment.

    We have developed this feature to support services of all sizes, whether you are looking to strengthen your enquiry handling, improve visibility of your admissions, or maintain consistent occupancy.

     

    Free trial available

     

    You can start with a free trial of the CRM feature to explore how it works within your service.

    During the trial you will be able to:

    • Record enquiries

    • Manage potential residents

    • Track pre assessments

    • View your admissions pipeline and so much more!

    This gives you the opportunity to see how CRM can support your occupancy planning before deciding whether to continue using the feature.

    If you choose to continue using the feature after your trial, the CRM feature is available for £15 per site, per month.

    Once your free trial ends, access to the CRM feature will be removed. However, our Business Development Executive will be in touch before your trial finishes to discuss the option of adding CRM to your system, if you would like to continue using it.

    We understand that the CRM feature will not be essential for every service we support. That is why it is offered as an optional feature, giving you the choice to decide if and when it is right for your service.

    CRM has been designed to give you greater visibility and control over your enquiries and admissions. By keeping all enquiry information in one place, tracking progress, and ensuring timely follow ups, it helps you stay on top of every opportunity. This reduces the risk of enquiries being missed or lost, which can ultimately lead to empty beds and potential loss of revenue.

    To help you make an informed decision, we offer a 30 day free trial. This gives you the opportunity to explore the feature within your own service and see the value it can bring before choosing to continue.

    Please contact the Customer Service Team by emailing them at support@carecontrolsystems.co.uk and inform them that you would like to cancel the direct debit payment for the CRM feature. 

    Once your free trial has ended, our Business Development Executive will be in touch with you.
