Who we empower every day
By RoleAgency Owners - Preserve deployment preparedness, credential records, and training compliance
By Persona- Supervisors - Before assigning caregivers to shifts, they should confirm their training records.
- Care Managers - Match client complexity with caregiver qualifications.
- Billers - Ensure that only qualified employees are billed for services.
- Schedulers - Only assign aides with the necessary training.
- Caregivers – Track training, renewal and certifications
- On-Call Coordinators – Ensure that backup staff meet credential requirements
Tracking caregiver training and certification via software creates a transparent credentialing workflow, reduces audit risk and ensures agencies deploy qualified caregivers consistently.
