StoriiCare Achieves PRSB Conformance: A Milestone in Personalised Digital Care

StoriiCare’s PRSB conformance ensures accurate, personalised care records, reflecting its commitment to person-centred, integrated care and improved outcomes through innovative digital tools.

The Importance of PRSB Standards

The PRSB was established to ensure that health and care records meet a national standard, providing a consistent foundation for data sharing and interoperability across the sector. PRSB standards are designed to enhance the quality and safety of care by ensuring that the information shared between health and social care providers is relevant, accurate, and user-centred.

For providers, meeting these standards signals a commitment to best practices and compliance with a framework that prioritises both service user empowerment and operational efficiency. For service users, it means their needs, preferences, and personal circumstances are more effectively captured and communicated across care settings.

Achieving PRSB conformance is no small feat. It requires rigorous assessment, development, and alignment with detailed criteria that reflect the complexities of care planning and delivery. StoriiCare, along with Tagtronics and SOS Care Management Systems, has achieved this conformance, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of personalised digital care.

What PRSB Conformance Means for StoriiCare

For StoriiCare, achieving PRSB conformance for "About Me" and Personalised Care and Support Plan Standards is a testament to our dedication to delivering high-quality, user-centric solutions. This certification means that our platform now meets national best practices for creating and sharing care records, making it easier for health and social care providers to collaborate, share information, and provide seamless care.

StoriiCare’s CEO, Cameron Graham, expressed the significance of this achievement:

“Achieving PRSB conformance shows our commitment to high-quality, person-centred care. This certification boosts our credibility and ensures our customers get the best in care planning and management, leading to better outcomes for everyone.”

How Digital Tools Are Transforming Care

The adoption of PRSB standards is not just about meeting regulatory requirements—it’s about fundamentally transforming how care is delivered. By integrating digital tools that adhere to these standards, care providers can:

  • Improve Data Quality and Accessibility: PRSB-conformant systems ensure that data is accurate, consistent, and accessible across care settings, reducing the risk of errors and improving continuity of care.
  • Empower Service Users: Personalised care plans, co-created with service users, ensure that their voices are heard and their preferences are respected. This collaborative approach fosters trust and empowers individuals to take an active role in their care.
  • Enhance Operational Efficiency: Standardised data and streamlined processes free up time and resources, allowing care providers to focus on what matters most—delivering high-quality care.
  • Foster Integration Across Systems: By aligning with PRSB standards, StoriiCare and other solutions can more easily integrate with other health and social care systems, creating a more connected and cohesive care ecosystem.

The Role of "About Me" and Personalised Care Plans

At the core of this transformation are "About Me" profiles and Personalised Care and Support Plans. These tools capture the unique needs, preferences, and goals of each service user, providing a holistic view that goes beyond clinical information.

The "About Me" profile is a foundational element of person-centred care. It allows individuals to share information about what matters most to them, from their likes and dislikes to their communication preferences and personal history. This ensures that care is not only tailored to their medical needs but also respects their individuality and dignity.

Personalised Care and Support Plans take this concept further by outlining specific goals and actions agreed upon by the service user and their care team. These plans promote collaboration, self-management, and accountability, ensuring that care is truly aligned with the individual’s priorities.

A Growing Movement Toward Digital Integration

The PRSB’s vision of integrated, holistic, and personalised care is rapidly gaining traction. By March 2025, it is anticipated that 21 social care solutions will achieve PRSB conformance, enabling the creation of hundreds of thousands of "About Me" profiles and personalised care plans.

This growing movement reflects a broader shift in the care sector toward digital integration and person-centred approaches. StoriiCare is proud to be part of this movement, working alongside other PRSB Quality Partners to set new standards for excellence in care planning and delivery.

Testimonials from Industry Leaders

StoriiCare’s achievement has been met with enthusiasm from across the care sector. Lorraine Foley, CEO of PRSB, commended the efforts of StoriiCare, Tagtronics, and SOS Care Management Systems:

“On behalf of the PRSB team, I would like to congratulate Tagtronics, StoriiCare, and SOS Care Management for becoming conformant with our standards and paving the way for achieving more integrated, holistic, personalised care. We are looking forward to hearing how this milestone will benefit their customers and end-users.”

Siju Jacob, Managing Director of SOS Care Management Systems, highlighted the practical benefits of PRSB conformance:

“Partnering with PRSB has been instrumental in further elevating the quality and efficiency of the care we provide. Their standards ensure that the system is not only compliant but also truly centred around the needs of those we serve.”

Mike Williams, CEO of Tagtronics Care, emphasised the impact on the homecare sector:

“We are excited to be able to improve the safety and quality of health in social care through our solution. We believe the values of our conformance continue with our aim to fully support the homecare sector.”

Why This Matters for Service Users

For service users, PRSB-conformant solutions represent a significant step forward in ensuring that their care is not only safe and effective but also deeply personal. By enabling service users to co-create their care plans, solutions like StoriiCare empower individuals to take control of their care journey.

This approach also helps to bridge the gap between health and social care, ensuring that information is shared seamlessly and that service users receive coordinated support. For families and caregivers, the result is greater peace of mind, knowing that their loved ones are receiving care that truly reflects their needs and values.

The Future of Personalised Digital Care

As digital care solutions continue to evolve, the importance of PRSB standards cannot be overstated. By providing a clear framework for quality and integration, these standards are driving the sector toward a future where care is more efficient, personalised, and impactful.

StoriiCare is committed to staying at the forefront of this movement, leveraging the power of technology to enhance care experiences and improve outcomes. Achieving PRSB conformance is just the beginning. As we look to the future, we will continue to innovate and collaborate with our partners to deliver the best possible solutions for care providers and their service users.
