From Incident to Insight: Smarter Responses with AI
When incidents happen in long-term care (LTC), the stakes are high. Whether it’s a fall, a medication error, or an altercation, the response must be quick, coordinated, and well-documented. But incident management should not stop at logging and follow-up. It should lead to lasting improvement.
At SharelyCare.ai, we believe every incident is an opportunity to strengthen care. Our AI-powered Incident Management module helps LTC teams move from reactive response to structured prevention by combining clear documentation with real-time Root Cause Analysis (RCA). RCA is the process of identifying the underlying causes of an incident to prevent it from happening again—and SharelyCare’s AI can help make it better.

Problems Faced by LTC Facilities
- Incident Reports Are Inconsistent or Incomplete
Without a structured intake and documentation process, incident details are often vague or missing. This makes investigations difficult and follow-up actions unclear. - Root Cause Analysis Is Difficult to Manage
While many facilities aim to conduct formal RCAs, the process can be time-consuming and hard to coordinate across teams. Without consistent follow-through, underlying issues persist, and it becomes harder to mitigate regulatory risk when incidents occur. - Manual Tracking Leads to Gaps in Remediation
Follow-up actions are often tracked by hand, which increases the risk of missed steps or incomplete documentation. Without a digital system, it’s difficult to provide clear evidence that remediation and training were completed.
