Case Study: Florida United Methodist Children's Home achieves 176% ROI and major time & cost savings with KaleidaCare

Florida United Methodist Children’s Home - Customer Case Study

Florida United Methodist Children’s Home (FUMCH), founded in 1908, provides residential care, independent living and foster care services. The organization needed an easy‑to‑use management system that would reduce data‑entry errors, enable customized reporting for multiple program regulations, streamline staff training amid high turnover, and cut staff and IT costs.

After implementing KaleidaCare, FUMCH gained flexible report-building, reduced intake time by 2 hours each (about 4 intakes/week → ~400 hours saved annually), and shortened training by 36 hours per 12‑week period (up to ~150 hours/year). The change cut errors, saved tens of thousands of dollars in the first year, produced a 176% ROI with a 4‑month payback, and earned strong praise from FUMCH leadership.
