You started with what you had—Excel sheets, printed rosters, and maybe a shared calendar. But now your team has grown, your clients need more, and things are starting to fall through the cracks.

If you’ve ever thought, “There has to be a better way,” you’re not alone.

Let’s talk about the key features Canadian providers should look for in home care software—and how choosing the right one (like ShiftCare) can completely change the way your team delivers care.

Rostering Shouldn’t Be a Puzzle

Scheduling in home care isn’t just about plugging names into time slots. You’re matching the right carers with the right clients, juggling availabilities, skills, preferences, and compliance—sometimes all before your morning coffee.

If your current system can’t handle:

• Drag-and-drop rosters

• Real-time updates

• Shift notifications

• Staff availability at a glance

Then it’s time to rethink your tools. ShiftCare offers a smart rostering engine built specifically for care teams—because no two schedules are ever the same.

Your Staff Need Mobile Access, Not More Admin

Your carers are on the road, moving between clients and juggling complex needs. Paper timesheets and calls to the office? That’s not sustainable.

Modern software gives carers:

• Instant access to their schedules

• Client profiles and care plans

• GPS-enabled clock-in/out

• The ability to log notes from their phone

The Home Care Software from ShiftCare was designed with carers in mind—because if it doesn’t work for them, it won’t work at all.

Billing and Payroll Shouldn’t Take All Week

Still pulling data from one system to invoice from another? Or worse, calculating it manually?

Here’s what software should do for you:

• Auto-generate timesheets

• Apply pay rates by shift or worker

• Sync with Xero, MYOB, or your payroll provider

• Flag discrepancies or missing hours

With ShiftCare, agencies report faster billing cycles, fewer errors, and happier finance teams.

Compliance Isn’t Optional—So Let’s Automate It

In Canada’s regulated care environment, you can’t afford compliance gaps. Whether it’s certifications, incident reports, or care documentation, everything needs to be logged, updated, and audit-ready.

Software like ShiftCare makes that easy with:

• Document tracking

• Expiry reminders

• Care note templates

• Secure data storage

When your compliance tools work in the background, you stay protected—without the stress.

Care Quality Starts with Better Client Tools

Care isn’t transactional—it’s personal. And your software should reflect that.

With Home Care Software, you get:

• Customisable care plans

• Daily task lists

• Progress tracking

• Family portals for real-time updates

Better tools lead to better care—and better outcomes.

You Deserve Real Insights, Not Guesswork

Can you answer these questions right now?

• How many shifts were cancelled last week?

• Which carers logged the most hours?

• Which clients are due for a care review?

If not, then your software isn’t doing enough. ShiftCare gives Canadian agencies real-time dashboards, KPIs, and exportable reports—so you’re not left in the dark.

The Bottom Line

You’re not just running a care agency—you’re managing people, compliance, schedules, outcomes, and a mountain of data.

You deserve software that keeps up.

That’s why Canadian providers trust ShiftCare. Our Home Care Software helps agencies:

• Reduce admin
