A local network. A regional & national perspective. A stronger voice for providers.
EMCARE exists to support and strengthen the independent care sector across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. We help care providers stay informed, connected and represented — while promoting high standards of care and practical solutions to the challenges facing providers.
Founded to bring local care providers together, EMCARE has grown into a trusted network for care organisations seeking practical support, meaningful representation and access to sector knowledge. Our role has evolved with the sector — from regulation and safeguarding to workforce, digital transformation and the everyday realities of running a care service.
What hasn’t changed is our commitment to local providers and the people in their care.
Care providers face real, daily pressure. EMCARE turns that into a shared voice, shared knowledge and shared progress.

Camascope specialises in eMAR (electronic Medication Administration Records) software, helping care providers replace paper-based medication processes with safer, more efficient digital workflows.
The platform helps care teams save valuable staff time, reduce medication errors and gain better oversight across their organisation. Teams can record medication at the point of care, manage PRNs, complete stock counts and audits, and maintain clear, inspection-ready records.
Managers have real-time visibility of medication rounds, including missed or skipped medications, time-sensitive alerts and audit trails. With offline functionality, medication administration can continue when internet connection is limited or unavailable, while pharmacy, GP and care planning integrations — including Nourish, PCS and Predicaire — help reduce phone calls, duplication and the risk of errors.
The recently launched Camascope ONE is a connected layer of additional control that gives care organisations stronger access management, data control and oversight through features such as Single Sign-On, Active Directory Sync, IP Whitelisting and Data API.
As a PRSB partner, Camascope is committed to supporting interoperability, collaboration and high standards across the care sector. The platform is also ISO 27001 certified and exceeds NHS DSPT standards, giving providers confidence in its approach to information security, data protection and system governance. Working with over 3,500 care organisations and supporting more than 100,000 people in care, Camascope offers a practical, connected solution for providers looking to reduce admin, improve medication safety and strengthen oversight.
If you’ve been feeling the limitations of your current digital system, this is the perfect time to assess whether it is truly serving your complex care needs.
Switching to Cura isn’t just about overcoming the headaches of a system you have outgrown. It’s about equipping your home with a digital system designed specifically to handle the intricacies of complex care.
“Our previous system simply wasn’t designed for the demanding needs of our service users, so it wasn’t the right fit for us. Cura addressed not only the limitations of our previous platform but also offered an unrivalled, straightforward solution for learning disabilities and complex care situations. Cura’s capabilities, such as detailed incident reporting, medication management, behavioural pattern tracking and daily care recording, align perfectly with our needs.”

We are pleased to introduce Care Launch, the UK’s first full-service marketing partner built exclusively for the care sector.
Based in Northampton, Care Launch works with care home operators and home care providers across the country, helping you attract more private-pay enquiries and fill more beds. As an Associate Supplier, we look forward to supporting EMCARE members and helping to showcase the incredible work you do every day.
Our services include:
Website Design & Development
Enquiry Management
Video & Photography
Search Engine & AI Engine Optimisation (SEO & AEO)
Paid Advertising (PPC)
Social Media Management
Two services we’d particularly highlight for EMCARE members:
Website Development – over 90% of private-pay care seekers now research their options online (Autumna), so your website is often the deciding factor before a family even calls. We build websites designed around how private-pay care seekers search and decide.
Enquiry Management – fast, reassuring answers turn enquiries into move-ins. We mystery shopped over 200 care homes and found 1 in 10 calls went unanswered — every one a lost opportunity. Our Enquiry Management service is built to help you capture every one of those moments.
Capital Allowance Review Service (CARS) helps care home owners, operators and investors unlock significant unclaimed tax relief hidden within their properties.
They do this by identifying qualifying fixtures, construction costs, refurbishments and land remediation opportunities that good accounting routines struggle to identify. The result is reduced corporation tax, cash refunds and stronger long-term financial performance for care home businesses.

Even when you think you’ve got it wrestled to the ground and pinned there, life has an unnerving facility for sticking out its tongue and then poking you in the eye.

Whether in business or in private affairs, we’re here to help you plan for the expected and the unexpected, so you’re ready for it, rather than simply reacting when it happens.
