Global Vision Technologies Launches Mobile Technology Access to FAMCare

With the launch of instant, remote access to FAMCare via mobile pda's and Windows hand-held devices... productivity has improved, data entry is more efficient and caseworkers can operate faster.



    ST. LOUIS, MO, May 22, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Last October, GVT launched a pilot program to test their new mobile-technology application with a select group of users of their child welfare and juvenile justice software. Because of the resounding success of the program - the new application went LIVE last week.

Results from the beta pilot have been consistent and very positive. Prior to using the technology, the user group had suffered from what many child welfare and human services caseworkers experience everyday... a backlog of cases, limited resources, asked to do more with less and no solid set of tools to help.

The group wanted a more streamlined and efficient way to collect case notes, review cases and share information back with management at the home office. Historically, the user group had been typically collecting case notes in a note pad - and typing the information back into the system at a later time - from their notes or from memory. The inherent pitfalls were obvious enough (items lost or forgotten, growing backlog of case management, etc.,)

With the launch of instant remote access to FAMCare via mobile pda's and Windows hand-held devices... productivity has improved, data entry is more efficient and caseworkers can operate faster.

Here are some of the comments and benefits the team received and discussed during the pilot. "We can now enter client information and observations, as they occur. We can inform our team of changes to a client's situation instantly from our mobile devices." Another comment referenced a renewed sense of real productivity when it comes to eliminating repetitive work... "I no longer take notes in a notebook and have to wait to return to the office to update client records. No more repetitive work!"

A final comment spoke of the benefits of being able to spend more quality time with clients... "I am more focused now - I'm able to spend more time in the field supervising clients, instead of watching my cases pile up."

"Overall, the program has been a huge success and we've received some really great comments. It really is exciting when we hear about a client's success as a result of our solutions - that is something you always appreciate. We're looking forward to more feedback as the program and application evolves," remarked George Ritacco, Executive Director, Client Services at GVT.

A list of user benefits include:
* Access FAMCare from a Windows Mobile-enabled, hand-held device
* Instant remote access to client information
* Enter notes or important information immediately
* Share findings with supervisors as observations are made in the field
* Eliminate 'repetitive' work
* Eliminate 'down-time' (enter notes from any location - at court hearings, at meetings, etc.,)
* Spend more time in the field supervising clients
* Case notes are more accurate
* Decisions are made faster
* Save agency money - data entry is streamlined
