Care home rules for England
Premises and equipment, fire and water, kitchen, medicines, governance, each member of staff's checks and each resident's reviews. Rules the law fixes cite their source. Add your own checks beside them.
Tenvi CareFor residential care homes
Every check in the home,
every person in it
Tenvi Care keeps a residential care home compliant across its premises, its staff and its residents, with rotas and training in the same place.
Who it is for
Built for the people who run the home
Residential care homes
Homes in England registered with the CQC, run by a registered manager and the team around them.
Managers and the office
The people who carry the checks, the rota and the training records, and who need to see all three without chasing.
Owners and directors
The person who owns the business sees how every home is running each morning, red, amber or green.
What you get
Compliance, workforce and residents, together
The checks for the building, and the modules a care home needs on top. Each one switched on for your home.
Residents
A light record per resident: home, room, admission, key worker, DoLS position, and the reviews and clocks that follow from them.
Staff records
Job roles and the people in them. Each role decides which checks and training apply: DBS, right to work, references, supervision and more.
Rota
Shift patterns and a staffing baseline per home. Weeks generated open, filled or copied, published with the changes on the trail. Clashes, rest limits and expired checks are flagged before anyone goes on shift.
Training
Subjects by role with refresh periods, records with certificates, the matrix at a glance, the Care Certificate standard by standard, and expiry alerts.
Absence, pick-ups and timesheets
Approved absence reopens shifts, staff ask to pick up open ones, and actuals feed a timesheet and a print view for the office wall.
Maintenance
Jobs from report to completion, with contractors and evidence, so the premises side of the home is on the same record.

Why Tenvi
Why care homes choose Tenvi
Fewer places to look, and the record is always ready.
- 01
One place for the home, the staff and the residents
Most tools cover one of the three. Tenvi runs the premises checks, the workforce checks and each resident's reviews on the same engine, with the same reminders.
- 02
The rota knows about compliance
An overdue DBS or expired training is flagged before someone is put on a shift, not after. Rest and hours limits are checked the same way.
- 03
Evidence ready when it is asked for
Every completed check carries its result and its file. Every change is on the trail. The record is there when an inspector or a director asks.
- 04
The owner sees the whole business
A morning email with each area red, amber or green and the people responsible, without needing a workspace login.
