Home care agencies juggle rotas, visit records, medication and family calls across dozens of homes, all under CQC regulation. Care management software such as Birdie and CareLineLive can draft care plans from a recorded assessment, show the office who has checked in and turn the rota into pay and invoices. The registered manager still checks every care plan, medication record and reply to a family.
