Care planning tablets and office PCs in every home, run from head office
A care group runs tablets for care planning and medication records in every home, iPads residents use to call their families, and an office PC the home manager depends on, with no IT on site. Purple MDM locks the care tablets to their apps, resets residents' iPads between uses and fixes the office PC without sending anyone.

FAQ
Questions we hear from teams like yours
Can head office fix a home's PC without visiting?
Known fixes are sent automatically, scripts run from the console with their output recorded, and the manager is told what is happening in a sentence.
Can care tablets be locked to the care app?
Yes. Fully managed Android tablets or supervised iPads run the apps you choose and nothing else, and a shared device carries a device policy, not a carer's.
What about residents' own phones and tablets?
Purple MDM manages the group's devices. Residents' own devices join the WiFi on their own keys through Purple Access, outside management.
How do we show the regulator our devices are secure?
Compliance reports over time per home, emailed on a schedule, with the audit log behind them.
