CareWorx and TUC merge

CareWorx, an Ontario-based long-term care IT company, and TUC Managed IT Solutions, based in Ottawa, are combining forces to gain market share in long-term care (LTC) management services.

CareWorx provides point-of-care solutions, cloud-based computing and senior care documentation applications to more than 4,000 LTC clients and has a longstanding strategic partnership with PointClickCare, a leading electronic health records vendor. TUC provides IT management and help desk services

“TUC and CareWorx have been working very closely since November 2014 – strategically, taking our partnership to the next level just made sense,” said Mark Scott, CEO of TUC, in a joint press release. “Together we saw new opportunities emerging in this market set to explode over the next decade.”

The combined company will operate under the CareWorx name. Mark Scott will serve as CEO, while former CareWorx CEO Mark Tomzak will serve as president.
