App-based communication helps

Families describe an app that streamlines scheduling and communication.

Several reviewers say the home health aide app makes scheduling and day-to-day communication easier. A few also mention features like families viewing schedules and being able to request or rate specific caregivers. One reviewer notes that a substitute aide did not follow directions left in the app, which is a negative example of how consistency matters when coverage changes.

These comments reflect that dementia caregiving is part of what families come to the agency for.
