Product updates

Everything new in GOSWFT, as it ships.

We release most weeks. This is every change your facility will notice — written for the people using it, not for developers.

Each shift now counts only its own rounds

Until now, every round logged in a wing counted towards the same daily total, no matter who did it or when. A night nurse and a morning nurse each saw the other's work mixed into their own numbers, so it was hard to tell what had actually been done on your shift. Each wing is now tracked shift by shift.

The short version

If your night staff finish a round at 2am, it counts towards the night shift. The morning team starts from zero.

  • Showers now say which round they belong to. A shower is listed as either AM Shower or PM Shower — on the schedule, on the checklist grid and on the printed report. Before, they were all just called Shower, so staff had to work out from the time which round a tick belonged to.

  • You are notified when a night round is finished. As soon as the last resident on the round is signed off, the people who need to know are told. Nobody has to open the app and check whether it was done.

  • Team, Schedule and Staffing are now one section. They used to be three separate places in the menu. The time clock has moved under Schedule, which is where most people were already looking for it.

  • You can break your financial figures down by department. See the same income and expenses split into dietary, housekeeping, care and administration, rather than one total for the whole building.

  • Reports are sorted into groups. The reports page had one long row of tabs to scan through. They are now grouped by subject, the same way the Finance section already was, so there is less hunting for the report you want.

Settings

Settings is now organised into six sections

Settings had grown to fourteen separate pages in one long list, and finding the right one meant remembering which page a setting lived on. Everything is now grouped into six sections, each with tabs across the top. There is also a search box: type what you are after — shower times, pay period — and it takes you straight to it.

  • Choose which notifications each role receives. You can now decide, for every role in your facility, what they are told about. Each notification explains what sets it off and where it arrives — email, the bell inside the app, or both. Staff can also turn off their own without asking a manager.

  • Deleting an account or a facility can be undone for 60 days. Nothing is deleted the moment you press the button. You have 30 days to undo it yourself. After that, our support team can still restore it for another 30 days. Only once both windows have passed is anything actually removed.

  • Room cleaning moved into the Care section. It used to sit in a section of its own. It is now with the rest of the daily work — checks, showers and rounds.

FinanceSettings

Compare your income statement against budget or last year

One month's figures on their own do not tell you much. What you usually want to know is whether they are better or worse than you expected. You can now put the income statement side by side with something to measure it against.

  • Three comparisons to choose from. Pick one at the top of the statement: against the budget you set, against the same period last year, or as a cost per resident per day. Every line updates to match.

  • See your journal entries over any date range. You could only look at one month at a time. Now you choose any start and end date, and each entry gets its own row.

  • Permissions are easier to read. Each role's permissions are now one row per area of the app, written in ordinary language instead of a long list of technical names. Finance is restricted to Admins.

NewFinance

Full accounting is now built into GOSWFT

This is the largest addition since move-ins. Before it, GOSWFT handled resident billing and your accountant handled everything else, which meant the same numbers were entered twice in two places. The full ledger now lives here.

The short version

You can keep a facility's whole set of books inside GOSWFT, so resident billing and your accounts are one system rather than two.

  • General ledger, accounts payable and bank reconciliation. What residents owe you and what you owe suppliers both feed the same ledger, so the two cannot drift apart. You can match transactions against your bank statement without leaving the app.

  • The three main financial statements. Balance sheet, income statement and cash flow, produced from the financial year and accounting standard you choose once when you open the section.

  • Schedules for assets, prepaid costs, accruals and loans. Things like depreciation and loan repayments are tracked next to the accounts they affect, rather than in a spreadsheet on the side.

  • Run more than one building. Combine several facilities into one consolidated set of figures, while still being able to look at each building on its own.

  • Import the spreadsheets you already have. Bring an Excel budget or a statement of results straight in instead of typing it out again.

A handful of smaller improvements

None of these is big enough to announce on its own. Together they are most of what you would notice using GOSWFT day to day this week.

  • Reports load a section at a time. A long report used to show a blank screen until every part of it was ready. The page now appears straight away and fills in as each section arrives, so you can start reading sooner.

  • Sort and filter your resident list by level of care. Handy for seeing at a glance how many residents sit at each level, and who they are.

  • Record why a resident moved out. When you complete a move-out you are asked for the reason, and it is shown on the resident's profile from then on.

  • Incidents ask for a follow-up. After an incident is filed, the person who filed it is reminded to record what happened next. Resident questions raised through ASKSWFT go to the care coordinator rather than waiting to be spotted.

  • Security updates. Routine security updates applied across the platform, including the editor used for notes and documents.
