Power Apps for Aged Care
Replace paper forms and spreadsheets with custom mobile and desktop apps built on Microsoft Power Apps — no coding required from your team.
Why aged care businesses choose this
Power Apps built for aged care
Aged care providers face mounting regulatory requirements while frontline staff are already stretched thin with paper-based care notes, handwritten incident forms, and manual credential tracking. Near-misses go unreported because the paperwork is too burdensome, and SIRS reporting deadlines create constant pressure. Digitising care documentation, incident capture, and staff compliance tracking on Microsoft 365 improves care quality and audit readiness without adding to carer workload.
Cut incident report completion time from 15 minutes to under 3 with digital capture
Ensure 100% staff credential compliance with automated expiry alerts
Reduce SIRS reporting preparation time by 70% with structured data capture
How it works
What we actually build and deliver
We start with your current paper form, spreadsheet, or manual process and design a mobile and desktop app that replaces it. Data is stored in Dataverse or SharePoint — whichever fits your environment. The app includes role-based access, validation rules, and offline support for field workers. We build, test, and deploy the app to your team with written guides and a walkthrough session.
The problem
What is slowing aged care businesses down
Care documentation is still paper-heavy
Care plans, progress notes, and handover sheets are handwritten or typed into disconnected systems. Information is delayed, incomplete, and hard to audit.
Incident reporting is slow and inconsistently completed
Carers complete paper incident forms that get handed to coordinators, then re-entered into systems. Near-misses often go unreported due to the effort involved.
Roster and compliance management is intensive
Ensuring every shift has compliant staff — with current first aid, food handling, and mandatory training — requires constant manual checking of spreadsheets.

FAQ
Common questions
Can the app work offline in the field?
Yes. Power Apps supports offline mode with automatic data sync when connectivity returns. We configure this for field-based workflows.
Can different users see different data?
Yes. We implement role-based access so managers, field staff, and admins each see the right records and actions for their role.
Do staff need to install anything?
Staff install the free Power Apps mobile app on their phone or tablet. Desktop users access the app through a browser — no installation needed.
Can this help with SIRS (Serious Incident Response Scheme) reporting?
Yes. Power Apps can capture incidents in structured format and Power Automate can route them for timely SIRS reporting with minimal manual effort.
Can carers use this on shared tablets without technical skills?
Yes. Power Apps is built for non-technical users. We design simple, large-button interfaces suitable for tablet use in care environments.
Is resident health data kept private and secure?
All data stays within your Microsoft 365 tenant. We configure permissions so only authorised staff can access resident information.
