Home About CareOnLine

Since CareOnLine started in 2001 we have helped over 600 individuals in their own homes and assisted with equipment and training in 25 sheltered housing locations, 24 social care locations and 12 voluntary organisations where over 3000 people have the opportunity to experience using a computer and the Internet.

Some examples of what our users say about CareOnLine:

• "I used it to claim DLA - I'd been turned down once but checked it all out from CareOnLine, found out I should be entitled and claimed again, successfully"
• "Saves calls to the doctor - I wasn't sure about something so I used CareOnLine and found I had nothing to worry about, it could wait for a routine appointment"
• "It is very important to me that you, and all others involved in this project, understand the very real difference my involvement with it has made to the actual quality of my life"

Specialist staff at Loughborough University evaluated the reactions of over 75 CareOnLine users.
Read a Summary of the Evaluation Report here including details of CareOnLine user's attitudes to the project, lessons for the future and recommendations from findings.
