Every shift, every agency, one app
The scheduling software you already have can only reach the caregivers you already employ. CareRooster reaches further.
The shift that sits open
Half past six in the morning. A caregiver calls off. The client is expecting somebody at nine. You open your scheduling software and it shows you the list it always shows you — your own caregivers, and every one of them is already booked.
So you start phoning round. And the shift sits open while you do.
What CareRooster does differently
Post an open shift and your own caregivers hear about it first, as they should. Then it reaches caregivers near you who are not on your list at all — people working for other agencies in your area, with hours to spare and a drive they would accept.
Caregivers can find you, too. They search for agencies near them and ask to join, arriving on your list already carrying their availability and the hours they are looking for.
And it compounds. Every agency that joins brings its caregivers. Every caregiver that joins brings their free hours. The pool everybody draws from gets deeper the more of you are in it — which is the one thing a scheduling system locked to a single agency can never do.
Nobody sees anybody else’s business. An agency sees its own shifts and nothing more — never which other agencies a caregiver works for, never what they are doing for them. When a caregiver is busy, it shows as “booked with another employer”, with no name attached. That is what makes a shared pool something people are willing to join.
Who it is for
For agencies
Reach beyond your own list, cover call-offs without the ring-round, and start each morning knowing what is covered and what is not.
What CareRooster does for an agency →For caregivers
Every shift from every agency in one week, a day that is already worked out when you wake up, and open shifts that fit the hours you want.
What CareRooster does for a caregiver →How it works
Every number in CareRooster is counted from the schedule — hours, drive times, overtime, who is free when. Nothing is guessed. And nothing changes anybody’s schedule by itself: the app works out the answer, a person decides what to do with it.
CareRooster is a scheduling tool. It is not an employer or an employment agency, and it does not verify qualifications or run background checks — those stay with the agency. It holds no client medical information: shifts carry a client reference, never a patient record.
Use it in a browser
CareRooster runs on the web as well as on a phone — the same screens, the same account. Handy for an office where the schedule is built at a desk.
