The bruise no one can explain
During a visit you notice an injury on the arm. The staff knows nothing, suspects a fall. Next time, a new mark has appeared. Without dated photos from the last visit, you can't show that incidents are adding up.

With photo and history.
Record your relative's condition in the care home: photo, affected area and a standardized wound assessment — per resident and with a date. A gut feeling turns into a timeline you can follow.

What you record per entry
Residents & Areas
Every entry with a resident link and care-home area — room, care bath, nursing station or a custom area.
Wound Assessment
Rate wounds in a standardized way — by EPUAP stages, by photo or in cm². Capture pressure ulcers objectively.
Photo + Timestamp
Every entry is automatically dated and timed. A picture says more than any later recollection.
PDF Care Record
A coherent record with photos and history — for home management, the inspectorate or the family.
Why you should document the condition in a care home
You visit your mother or father in the home and something is wrong: a bruise, a wound at the tailbone, a sore spot that wasn't there last time. You ask, but the staff can't explain it. On the next visit it's worse — and you have no earlier photo. Across hundreds of thousands of care-home places, this is a recurring problem: relatives sense that something is off but can't prove it.
With Care Documentation you capture the condition right during the visit on your smartphone. You add the resident, assign the entry to an area — room, care bath or nursing station — and take a photo with an automatic timestamp. You rate wounds in a standardized way: by the EPUAP stages for pressure ulcers, by photo, or with the size in square centimetres. Across several visits, this builds a history per resident instead of isolated snapshots.
When you need a coherent overview — for a conversation with home management, a report to the regulatory authority or an assessment by a lawyer — you create a PDF record with one click. All data stays on your device. No account, no server, no cloud. Health data is especially sensitive and is nobody's business but yours.
Three situations many families know
The wound that keeps growing
A pressure ulcer forms at the tailbone. "It's being treated," you're told. Weeks later it's deeper and open. Without an objective timeline — stage, size, a photo per week — it stays reassurances instead of a traceable development.
The meeting with home management
You ask for a meeting because several things have caught your eye. But without data and photos, your impression stands against management's reassurances. With a record, you put concrete entries with date and area on the table.
All three situations share the same pattern: without documentation, it stays an impression. With photos, area, wound assessment and history, it becomes a record you can follow.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is Care Documentation for?
For family members who want to record a resident's condition in a care home, and for carers who document their observations in a structured way. You add residents, assign each entry to a care-home area, and capture observations with a photo, a date and a standardized wound assessment.
How does the documentation help in a conversation with home management or the inspectorate?
Instead of a vague impression, you present a clear timeline: dated photos, the affected area and how a wound developed across several entries. A coherent PDF record makes it easier to prepare a conversation with home management, a report to the regulatory authority or an assessment by a lawyer.
Does the app work without internet?
Yes, Care Documentation works 100% offline. All entries and photos stay exclusively on your device. No server, no cloud, no data sharing. The app needs neither an account nor registration.
How much does Care Documentation cost?
Unlimited residents and entries, care-home areas, the wound assessment, photos and the history per resident are free. No subscription. Use it for good.
Which languages is the app available in?
Care Documentation is fully translated and usable in 24 languages — all official EU languages. This makes the app suitable for families in which different native languages are spoken.
