What’s included

IT support that fits how care actually runs.

A care home is not an office. It runs around the clock, staff share devices, turnover is high, and the data involved is among the most sensitive there is. WikiTech supports that reality.

Care planning software support

Digital care planning, eMAR, and rostering platforms need dependable access on every shift. We support the infrastructure, devices, and user access around the systems you rely on.

Resident data security

Care records are special category data. MFA, access control, device encryption, and email protection put practical safeguards around resident information.

Building-wide Wi-Fi and connectivity

Care software on the move needs coverage in every room and corridor. We design, fix, and manage networks across older and larger buildings, with on-site engineers when needed.

Starters, leavers, and agency staff

High turnover and agency cover mean constant account changes. We keep onboarding fast and offboarding clean, so former staff never retain access to resident data.

Microsoft 365 management

Email, Teams, SharePoint, and licensing managed properly, so managers, seniors, and head office work from the same live information.

Shared and personal device management

Tablets, medication trolleys, laptops, and office PCs are secured, patched, and enrolled in Intune, with fast replacement when hardware fails on shift.

Also included: backup monitoring, licence management, and a named account manager. Everything is covered by one published per-user price, which matters when every pound is accounted for. For an external baseline on cyber hygiene, the NCSC small business guide is a sensible reference alongside your own policies.

Industry pain points

Common IT challenges for care providers.

Care home IT problems land on staff who are already stretched, and on data that absolutely cannot leak. These are the issues we see most often across residential and domiciliary care.

Sensitive resident data

Care records, medication data, and safeguarding notes demand tight access control and encryption, with a clear trail of who saw what.

A 24/7 operation

There is no overnight downtime window. Failures at 3am still affect care delivery, so resilience and monitoring have to be built in.

Staff turnover and agency access

Frequent starters, leavers, and agency staff make it easy for old accounts and shared logins to pile up into a real security risk.

Tight budgets, ageing kit

Care margins leave little room for surprise IT bills. Old devices and networks need a planned, affordable path forward, not a shock invoice.

The team behind the tickets

A real team behind every ticket.

WikiTech is not a helpdesk of anonymous agents. It is a team of senior engineers based in Maidstone who know your business, know your systems, and care about keeping your technology running.

When you raise a ticket you reach people who already know the context. No scripted responses, no bouncing between departments, and no re-explaining your setup every time.

FAQs

IT support for care homes, answered.

Can you support digital care planning and eMAR systems?

Yes. We support the IT environment around care planning, medication, and rostering platforms, including devices, Wi-Fi, user access, and performance.

How do you protect resident records and safeguarding data?

We implement MFA, controlled access, device encryption, email protection, and clean starter and leaver processes so sensitive data is only available to current, authorised staff.

Can you fix poor Wi-Fi coverage across our building?

Yes. We survey, design, and install wireless networks that reach every room and corridor, and our Kent-based engineers handle the physical installation and ongoing management.

How do you handle high staff turnover and agency workers?

We run structured onboarding and offboarding: accounts and access are provisioned quickly for new and agency staff and revoked immediately when they leave.

Is WikiTech affordable for a care home on a tight budget?

Our pricing is published and per user, from £40 per month with unlimited support included. No surprise invoices, and a 60-day exit clause means we have to keep earning the contract.
