Cindy Whitehouse, CEO and founder of Ascential Care, led the selection. With more than twenty years as a Registered Nurse and decades of serving in the workers’ compensation and care management industry, Ms. Whitehouse says, "We selected DataCare because they offered us the opportunity to start small and then to rapidly scale up our operations. We were able to successfully implement DataCare's core package for two nurses within three weeks and we are well on our way to achieving significant growth by the end of the year."

DataCare is a leader in the growing trend to put easy-to-use predictive modeling tools in the hands of nurses and physicians.
