InsideTrac is here: a clearer view of your nursing home’s purchasing
We’re pleased to introduce InsideTrac, our new spend visibility programme, designed to help nursing home managers, procurement teams and owners understand their purchasing and make more informed decisions. InsideTrac automatically brings purchasing data from CareConnect into one easy-to-use dashboard. Whether you oversee one nursing home or a group, it helps you see where money is going, how spending is changing and where a closer look may be needed.
Your data is already there. InsideTrac helps you see what it means.
More insight from your everyday ordering
Every order contributes to a bigger picture of how your nursing home operates. But when you’re busy managing staff, supporting residents and keeping supplies stocked, there isn’t always time to work through purchasing records.
InsideTrac brings that information together, reducing the need to compile spreadsheets and prepare manual reports.
You can explore purchasing by home, department, product category or date, making it easier to answer practical questions:
- Which departments account for the largest share of spending?
- Has purchasing increased compared with the previous period?
- Is an unexpected change limited to one home or happening across the group?
- Where should we investigate further before making purchasing decisions?
A more meaningful way to compare homes
For nursing home owners and procurement teams managing several locations, total expenditure only tells part of the story. Homes with different numbers of beds will naturally have different purchasing requirements.
InsideTrac includes Spend per Bed per Day, helping you compare purchasing across homes of different sizes on a more consistent basis.
It provides a useful starting point for understanding variations and asking better questions. Differences in resident needs and how each home operates still matter when interpreting the figures.
Useful information for the people making decisions
For nursing home managers, InsideTrac makes it easier to review departmental spending and identify changes that may need attention.
For procurement teams, it provides a clearer view of purchasing patterns, supporting conversations about ordering habits, product choices and opportunities to reduce unnecessary spending.
For owners and head office teams, it brings purchasing information across homes into one place, helping you maintain oversight and focus attention where it is needed.
Supporting better purchasing decisions
Managing a nursing home budget means making careful decisions while ensuring staff have the products they need to deliver good care.
InsideTrac gives you more information to support those decisions. By making purchasing patterns easier to understand, it helps you move from knowing what you have spent to understanding what is behind it.
