App demo

Thornfield RoundsThornfield Home Care, Asheville

Record the visit

The screen the app exists for: record what was delivered, in the stairwell and not from memory at night. What was not delivered is recorded explicitly, not left out.

Thornfield Rounds is a sample app by Awelior. Invented business, invented data, nothing is stored.

Early round north

Sample data

Round changed at 06:40

The visit to Mr Sadler is off, the family canceled. Mrs Fletcher comes across from Nadia Ritchie’s round instead — her key is at the office.

Round plan

Tapping opens the visit with the agreed items and how to get into the apartment. What stands here is the billing side — the care notes live elsewhere.

About this app

Thornfield Home Care does not exist. The names, addresses, times, services and amounts on these screens are invented and describe no real person and no real visit.

There are deliberately no diagnoses and no readings here. A demo that invents health data starts to look genuine — which is exactly what it must not do. The app stores nothing, sends nothing and documents nothing.

Ticked off in the apartment, not in the car — otherwise at the end of the month it is a memory against a scrap of paper. One item is blocked, and it goes into the handover.

Visit 4

Record the visit

Sample data

Visit 4 — Mrs Aldridge

Whatever was ticked in the checklist is already filled in. Only what no list covers gets typed — and the note reaches the late round today.

Services delivered
LK 2, LK 4 and LK 12

Carried over from the checklist. Departing from it is possible, but needs a reason.

Device time on entering, not the planned time.

Four minutes over — that is all the detail needed.

Blood pressure
Taken and noted

The reading itself belongs in the care notes, not on this screen.

Medication
Not delivered

What was not delivered is recorded, not left out. The reason belongs in the note.

Goes to the colleague on the late round and to the coordinator.

This form submits nothing.

What happens next

Five stages — and none of them is a carbon copy left lying in the car.

  1. Captured on the devicedone08:46The entry stays on the phone even with no signal.
  2. Sent to the coordinatorin progresssince 08:47As soon as there is signal. The late round then sees the note the same day.

  5. Sent to the funding bodystill openstill openOnly then does the claim go out. Whatever is missing here is missing there too.

Close the visit

Before closing, what goes to the late round and the round office is on screen. Whatever is missing here is missing from the monthly record too.

Services in August

Grouped by item so the record fits on one screen. The one item that was not delivered still stands on its own line.

What this record is

The record of services sets down which agreed services were delivered on which days. It is the basis for claiming from the funding body and at the same time the thing the client countersigns at the end of the month.

Services that were not delivered are stated outright. Quietly leaving them out would be easier and is wrong for exactly that reason: anyone asking in September why the medication is missing finds the answer in the record rather than in somebody's memory.

What lives in this app is the billing side — not the care notes. Keeping the two apart is not red tape. One of them is the office's business, the other is between the care worker and the client.

Handover

Sample data

No signal since 08:44

The stairwell is a dead spot. Anything written stays on the device and goes out once you are back at the car.

Coordinator, Thornfield

In writing, because nobody makes calls in a client’s apartment — and because the late round has to be able to read what was not delivered at 08:47.

The four states

Between two home visits the signal is often gone. The record still has to be made there, and not from memory that evening.

  • Loading

    Loading the round

    Opening the app just before seven, the order of the visits is already there. Addresses and agreed services follow.

  • Nothing there

    Nothing to hand over

    Nothing outstanding is an answer, not an empty screen. The app says so and offers the next visit.

  • Failed

    Entry not accepted

    The coordinator rejected the entry for Mr Sadler because that visit has since been canceled. It stays on the device until somebody decides — it is not quietly dropped.

  • No connection

    No signal in the stairwell

    Services, times and notes keep being captured on the phone. They go out by themselves once the device has signal again.

No effect in this demo — nothing is stored.

Replaces the round folder on the passenger seat, the carbon-copy service record and the handover that only reaches the office in the evening. The late round reads it the same day.

Everything in this demo is laid out and none of it acts: buttons only report that they have no effect in the demo, checkboxes are fixed, input fields lead nowhere. Nothing is stored, sent or fetched.

The project frame

How Awelior would approach this project

Thornfield Home Care, Asheville is invented — the way it is built is not. None of this is work delivered for a client. It is the shape we would give such a project — with the same depth, but without a client who would have to answer for it.

Where it starts

Thornfield Home Care runs nine visits before half eleven. What was delivered is written on carbon paper in the client's flat; changes to the round arrive by telephone; and the handover to the late round reaches the office in the evening. At the end of the month the claim to the funder rests on slips of paper that have traveled between a flat, a van and a desk.

Decisions

  • The app keeps the billing record, not the care record

    The entry says that blood pressure was taken — not what it was. One belongs to the office, the other is between the carer and the client. Keeping two things apart is less convenient than keeping one, and it is the only build that holds the separation.

  • What was not delivered is stated in the record

    Leaving out the medication that could not be given would be easier and is exactly why it is wrong. Anyone asking in September why it is missing finds the answer in the record and not in somebody's memory.

  • A rejected entry stays put

    When the round supervisor rejects an entry, it travels back to the device and stays visible until somebody decides. For work that gets billed, a silently discarded entry is lost money — and nobody knows how much.

Deliberately left outNo diagnoses, no readings, no medication list. Not because it would be technically hard: health data invented for a demo looks real afterwards — and in a finished app it is a special category of personal data that needs a project of its own, not one more screen.

Navigation responds, including the route from the round into a visit and on into the recording screen. Checklist, entry form, sign-off and the monthly record are fully rendered and inert; the four states have a view of their own.

How it would go on

  • Connection to billing

    Care packages, contracts, funder share and personal contribution live in the care management system. The record in the app has to be the record that goes to the funder.

  • Countersigning and retention

    How a signature on a phone replaces the carbon copy, who signs when the client cannot, and how long the record is kept afterwards.

  • Devices, roles and cover

    Who sees which round, what happens on sickness and shift changes, and how a lost phone is taken out of service before somebody else reads the round on it.

Thornfield Rounds is invented — the fit is not. Apps come about exactly this way: from the routes that already exist in a business, only without the paper in between.
