The care sector stands at a pivotal moment, with significant change on the horizon. Our 10th Annual Trends Report explores how a range of forces technological innovation, shifting workforce expectations, regulatory updates, and evolving user needs are reshaping the landscape of care in 2026.

While many organisations are taking steps to modernise, the path to progress is rarely simple. Care providers continue to encounter obstacles such as legacy systems, fragmented workflows, and pressures to upskill staff for a digital-first future. Achieving seamless integration and maximising the benefits of new approaches requires a fresh look at routines, resources, and strategy.

A critical challenge for the sector is aligning leadership vision with the realities faced by frontline teams. Communication gaps, resistance to change, and the complexity of day-to-day operations can all slow momentum. Supporting your team through transformation is essential for delivering lasting, positive impact.

The report delves into several core themes for care providers:

The paradox of progress

Opportunities for improvement are abundant, but connecting new processes and tools into long-established systems can be difficult. Many organisations are still working to break down silos and move past manual interventions toward a more integrated approach.

Navigating the people side of change

Any transformation is only as strong as the people driving it. Workforce readiness, ongoing development, and creating a culture that embraces change are vital to ensuring that investments lead to better outcomes for both staff and those they care for.

Unlocking real value

Beyond adopting new systems, providers must prioritise sharing insights across every level of the organisation. Focusing on resilience, confident decision-making, and empowering every member of the team will ensure improvements are felt throughout the organisation and for those receiving care.
