Beacon Communities Speeds Information Access with A.L.Wizard
A.L.Wizard software integrates with Tagweb for improved risk management
SAN DIEGO, Calif. - April 22, 2002
A.L.Wizard, Inc., a provider of management software for assisted living communities, announced today that Beacon Communities has implemented its Internet-based software to gain quick access to resident information, including scheduling, levels of care and patient assessment, for its thirteen senior communities.
Beacon Communities is a property management company specializing in the assisted living industry. A full-service management company, Beacon has expertise in all areas of senior living management, including accounting, management, hiring, training, and comprehensive human resource services.
"A.L. Wizard gives us the ability to offer better resident care and, at the same time, improves our risk management position," said CEO David Johnston "We were able to lower our liability insurance premiums by 10 percent because our carrier recognizes the positive impact of better care management. At the same time, A.L.Wizard's assessment tool helps us keep residents' families better informed on the care of a loved one."
A.L.Wizard integrates resident care and service planning with Tagweb's liability risk management program to automate the resident assessment process and identify specific interventions for at-risk residents. By streamlining operations and accurately capturing costs, A.L. Wizard improves efficiency and promotes quality of care.
Billy Brock, Beacon's vice president of resident management, added, "ALWizard is user friendly and it gives us consistency across all of our communities. It also helps our residents and families understand levels of care charges and assists our associates in organizing and having a consistent care schedule to meet residents' needs. The training that A.L.Wizard provided to each community was well planned and coordinated, with excellent follow-up."
