The fuel to all agencies is their staffing. Ensuring HR is running at full steam is paramount to an agency’s success. eCaring automates many everyday manual tasks to speed up your HR processes and improve productivity. HR staff also benefit from a mobile app engagement platform that drives a self-service employee experience. eCaring’s smoother workflows ensure HR focus and their efforts are where they have the most significant impact - on hiring and retaining caregivers. And not on tedious manual tasks such as chasing paperwork and entering the same data into multiple systems.
Caregivers provide hands-on support in the fields for their clients. eCaring understands the tools caregivers need to succeed in their work to fit on their phones. Avoiding paperwork or carrying around a separate device such as a laptop or tablet is costly for agencies. eCaring’s platform makes it easier to engage and support your staff to improve your retention.
Rules and requirements from clients, State Medicaid, and your agency exist. But ensuring your staff is compliant with those requirements is complex and can be costly when done thoroughly. eCaring has built-in compliance management, including reviews and validation, reporting, automated notifications, and audit reporting. These features ensure your agency stays compliant without spending a lot of manual time working with and reviewing spreadsheets and paper documents.
It’s essential to understand how your staff performs and address situations when subpar work occurs. eCaring’s system proactively looks out for situations like this and notifies you and your team so you can take appropriate action. To help your agency grow faster, we’ve automated many tasks with auto texts and emails, reducing the level of human touch needed. The most common is when a caregiver hasn’t checked into a scheduled shift, the system will text and email them. If they fail to respond appropriately, the system will engage a member of your team to investigate further. eCaring also makes your staff aware of their performance through their personalized role-based dashboard, which motivates staff to focus on the right tasks that matter most to your agency.
Our software is built by Home Care Industry leaders, and we’ve created a system that incorporates the best practices we know will help agencies be successful. Caregiver training is one of those areas. We have found over the years that while Training and In-Services is often a payor compliance requirement when done well, it’s also an agency differentiator in retaining great staff. Instead of it being built as a have to do, we have built it as a way to invest in your team and improve their professional skills and make them a better caregivers. We have automated many processes here with notifications, reminders, recognition, and a positive self-guided experience for staff.
