Thankful we went with MatrixCare
Excellent and very responsive!
Pros
It is very comprehensive and meets all of our clinical, admission, census, and billing needs. The BEST part is MatrixCare is always upgrading and improving as the needs change, changes are not based on what programmers think would be cool, changes and improvements are all based on the input and feedback from users! Implementation process was AMAZING!!! Full road map provided to implement system, ongoing support throughout process, customized to our needs, and full optimization review at the end to determine what needs greater focus to maximize.
Cons
I really have n0 complaints regarding the product or services.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
Point Click Care engaged us frequently as if there were no options and their product was superior, they never fully understood who we were as a customer and we felt that we were to bend to meet their expectations. In the end, the Implementation Plan/Proposal was clearly a differentiator and it ended up being critical for our success.
Reasons for switching to MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
At the time, we felt our current product and options were not keeping up with where the needs were going.

Good review
We have had good overall experience with the program. It is easy for one user to teach another user the functions needed for their daily tasks.
Pros
It is easy to use. When we first started implementing it, there was a lot of assistance with set-up and training.
Cons
The price keeps going up. There may be features added that we are unaware of and could be using. Some employees have a need to have multiple log-ins due to not being able to access certain features with their original templates. It is difficult to go back and set-up new forms or change forms. There are very few staff left at our facility that know how to navigate this process.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
We like the set-up better and ease of finding things. Easy to learn to use.

Antiquated and out of touch with today's world
SNF was ok. You folks are clueless about Senior Living other than nursing home.
Pros
The nursing home software. The outstanding tech support folks
Cons
What a mess! 1. We were told in 2013 when we bought this for our nursing home, that "they" were putting in a fix for the phone numbers to "jump" from one space to the next. Almost 8 years later, "they" have never done this. 2. You can add physicians from your corporate capabilities but you cannot add a pharmacy. 3. There are SKADS of mandated fields that should be optional. Example - you may or may not need the email of a physician or his/her NPI number but those are mandated - wastes a LOT of time for facilities that will not ever use those. Same with addresses, etc. 4. On billing, the scripts should be editable by us, not Matrix. What a hassle to get the size and language changed - it's an act of god! 5. You cannot sort a report that lists everyone who has X pharmacy! Hello? That's just plan foolish 6. On reports the date does not default to current date and then you change from that if needed - cumbersome and illogical 7. It is soooo out of touch with the world. We have IL and AL but Matrix calls everyone PATIENTS! Seriously? Nursing home people are RESIDENTS and at the very least, IL and AL are residents but for many, TENANTS. 8. There is no package for logical AL - it's all sort of modified nursing home - and the language is ALL nursing home - Care Plans instead of Service Plans for example. And the meds - all completely based on nursing home. 9. I wish we had not already had Matrix for our nursing home, we sure would not have gotten it for AL.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
Would never choose again, now knowing how bad it is for AL. And the salesperson was extremely slow. The folks who helped us set up the AL and our billing were very good but poor them to have to work with inferior products.

All computer knowledge ease of use
Easier to use than many others available.
Pros
Ease of use, easy to learn even for those with limited computer knowledge. Wide variety of report options. The ability to set up multiple user profiles.
Cons
Inability to create certain reports. Wish it had additional census line options.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
The ease of use, the observation options, care plan options, ability to create or modify observations

We love MatrixCare
Pros
Post implementation support was simply outstanding.
Cons
When I provide a suggestion, I would like feedback as to when it might be implemented or where they are in the process.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
The nursing department made the final decision. They found the med pass feature to be much easier to use then PCC.

Good Software; Great Software Customer Service
I have been very happy. It has been a good fit for me and our organization.
Pros
What i like the most is how responsive the company and team are. Wondering if the software can do something? Wondering if there is a report that can give you what you need? The team is AMAZING and getting back to you and giving you answers. If they can't find a way to give you what you need, they will create it!
Cons
The only real complaint i have is that at times it feels inefficient. A lot of clicks to get where you need to go to sometimes, comparatively speaking. Some software is definitely more friendly to flip to the next patient or quickly search for a different patient.
Reasons for switching to MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
Needed a software that was able to grown with us. This definitely fits the bill!

Matrix reveiw
I am satisfied with Matrix. I find it easy to move around in the system. I have a lot of rights as the administrator of the facility, so I can see what is new and available.
Pros
all discipline's progress notes are in one place. I can get the picture of the resident in one place. It has observations and events. They assist in getting a clear picture for completing the MDS. Our organization is an Institute for Mental Disease, IMD, 2 smaller nursing homes and assisted livings. Our needs are diverse. Matrix can accommodate the different needs within the organization. We can customize observations, etc. I have given feed back to other organizations thinking about changing to Matrix.
Cons
The piecemeal costs. I am a small facility within a larger organization. I run a 37 bed SNF. As a smaller facility, it is hard to sell the cost, if the rest of the organization doesn't need the particular add on.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
the organization started Matrix in my SNF as a trial. It was initially considered for the functionality and ability to obtain the data in such a way that filling out the MDS was done most accurately.

Skilled Nursing Service Review
Excellent reporting and data abstraction. We are given so many tools to track and monitor our success.
Pros
I have a lot of positive items to point out relating to MatrixCare Software. It is very reliable and is almost never down. Actually, I don't remember the last time the system went down. I would venture to guess it's been more than 18 months for our facilities. The communication of product enhancement is wonderful. The help desk staff is always very friendly and helpful when calling with questions. The CCD for resident transfers to hospital hits all the necessary and important documentation for a safe transfer to the hosptial or home. The ease of printing client records and resident documents is a huge positive. This is just to mention a few items that I enjoy most about the system.
Cons
Sometimes something added to a wish list can take quite a long time before it is added to an upgrade.

MatrixCare EHR for Skilled Nursing Facilities
Have worked with this product for 18 yrs in SNF and assisted living
Pros
Easy to use and implement. Can customize many of the forms if you choose without difficulty. Both clinicians and billing like this product. Integrates with Great Plains and several other software products
Cons
Would like it to communicate better with our assisted living communities

Millennium software!
I think all nursing facilities need it. It's very useful and very effective in the functional system.
Pros
It's so well put together and organized. If your working in the healthcare field it's a must to have this software.
Cons
The software goes down for servicing and itight be during the times you have to document or chart.

User Friendly (mostly)
Pros
As a user, I feel like I understand how most areas within MaxtrixCare work. The dashboard is my favorite part so I can easily click on different aspects of care. I also like the grid box on the upper left corner where I can find areas/categories of care where I use most often.
Cons
Sometimes when I'm writing a note or observation, other windows with pop over what I'm writing or vice versa, and the window I'm writing on will pop under a different window. It's quite frustrating because it happens often. I also do not like that if you have an observation open, and you go to add a progress note, the observation immediately closes and does not save.

MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility Software
Homestead has had a very satisfying experience with MatrixCare. As our facility accesses the newer aspects of MatrixCare, we find functionality for options which may not have been available in earlier versions of the software.
Pros
Using MatrixCare for over 15 years, I find it is very user friendly and easy to train. It provides our facility with the access and information needed to care for our residents. Customer support is very professional and promptly addresses issues we may experience.
Cons
Some aspects of reporting, setting up features, or making changes are cumbersome. Security templates are too rigid especially for smaller facilities where staff overlap in functions.

Best software for SNF LTC
MatrixCare has been one of the best software solutions for our organization.
Pros
The company is forward thinking and works to best tailor the product to the current regulatory needs of the SNF
Cons
Some areas could use an update to help improve communication with other employees/vendors/physicians through their internal message system.
Reasons for choosing MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
Overall the product had a much better flow and easy to instruct and learn from all levels of technical ability.
Reasons for switching to MatrixCare Skilled Nursing Facility
Needed to partner with a solution that was headed in the same technology direction that we were.

Serves its purpose for my field
Good, serves its purpose, but would like to see an upgraded version, more user friendly with drop down menus.
Pros
I used this software while working as a discharge planner in a nursing home. It was easy in terms of documentation.
Cons
Some features are not available on the care planning option such as drop down menus. In addition, trying to get specific things narrowed down by category is not easy, or simply not possible on this version. Also, the services would drop more often than should be expected, causing inconvenience while trying to work.

Matrix Care Review
The current API that we can add face sheets from our other software is time saving but again other API's are needed to increase efficiency.
Pros
I like Matrix Care. When on boarding new hires, Matrix is almost self explanatory. It doesn't take much time for new hires to use this software error free. Would recommend to new companies searching for a new software.
Cons
Would like more API's to integrate into our other systems.

One Platform
Fantastic experience and history with MatrixCare
Pros
We will soon be adding Mealtracker and Accounting functionality which will allow us to have medical records and these other functions all on one platform.
Cons
Can't think of anything, the functionality of product works for us.

Brookside Rocks!!
Great!
Pros
I like that it's thorough and simple to use and easy to train a person how to use.
Cons
Dislikes is that nursing aide don't have the option to go back and correct if they mis charged. The other software I used before allows that option and I found it very nice.

Pros
This product is one of the easier to use for long term care billing that I have used in past. Customer support is amazing.

October 2018
after the sales pitch, very frustrating
I would not recommend this product to anyone. MatrixCare has taken our facility back 10 years. Normal daily functions are split because very little is able to be accomplished at a corporate level but have to be accomplished facility by facility (we have 7 facilities!!!), so many of our reports that need to be run week by week are taking us 7 times longer.
Pros
Very little...but I do have to say that their staff try really hard to fix problems. Unfortunately, most of whom I've spoken with do not have the rights to correct most of the issues that I call in for.
Cons
We are unable to customize to our needs, and if customization is needed, it will happen ONLY if other facilities request the same "customization". Getting and keeping users in the system is next to impossible with the built in requirements by MatrixCare. We have been working with their customer service for almost a year on 2 different problems we've experienced from the start, beginning this past Feb., still working on it. We were promised, not once but SEVERAL times during the sales pitch that updates would be 10-15 minutes and extremely unnoticeable...in less than a year our NOC shift has had over 50 HOURS of downtime because of all of the (4 HOUR) updates. Sometimes updates are run not once, but several times a month, each at 4 hours downtime.

Nice Product
Pros
User friendly. Easy use of the drop down boxes.
Cons
Not much to complain about, some of the things are the way they are set up at the Corporate level, so not much Matrix could do about that.
