24-hour visits that run automatically each day, notes written whenever they are needed, double-up and respite cover, and charges by the day, week or month. One system, one login, no long-term contracts.
With ✦ AI built in to audit notes, summarise care records, answer policy questions, refine messages, transcribe care plans and meetings.
What is live-in care software?
Live-in care software is a system that a care provider uses to manage care where a carer lives in the person's home. It rosters the carer for 24-hour visits, holds the care plan, lets the carer record notes and medication through the day, and produces invoices.
Careberry does all of this in one system. Your managers, your care staff and families each have their own way in, and everyone works from the same information.
Built by people who saw most systems get live-in care wrong
When we ran our own care companies, live-in care was the type of care that most systems could not manage properly. A live-in visit lasts 24 hours, and the carer may need to write many notes during the day. Careberry was built by directors with 30 years' combined experience of running care services, so it handles this from the start.
- 24-hour visits that run automatically each day
- Carers write notes as and when they are needed through the day
- Add a second carer to a visit as a double-up
- Add another carer to release the live-in carer for respite
- Charge by the day, the week or the month
See Careberry in action
Watch how Careberry brings rostering, care planning, eMAR, invoicing and AI together in one platform.
Everything in one platform, so you can stop juggling systems
One login for your managers, care staff and families. Built by people who have run care services, so every feature solves a problem we faced ourselves.
Live-in care rostering with no gaps or double bookings
Create and adjust rotas in a few clicks and allocate staff by availability, skills and the needs of the people you care for. A live-in placement runs as a 24-hour visit that repeats automatically each day, and you can add another carer to a visit as a double-up or to cover respite.
Timesheets created for you, and handovers that overlap
Carers' timesheets are created automatically in the background, so nobody has to build them by hand. Plan each carer's placement weekly, fortnightly, every four weeks or monthly, whichever suits them. When one carer replaces another, the replacement can start while the first carer is still there, and the two run at the same time for a few hours or longer, so the handover is done properly.
Care plans and daily notes your whole team can trust
Build each care plan in the flexible care plan designer rather than a fixed template. Because a live-in visit runs for 24 hours, carers write notes as and when they are needed through the day, and every note goes straight to the person's record. A change to the plan reaches staff straight away, and families can follow along through their own portal.
Safer medication, with a full audit trail
Replace paper MAR charts with a digital record of every dose given, refused or missed. Search the NHS Medicines database when adding prescriptions, and staff record each dose at the touch of a button on a phone or tablet. You are alerted to refusals, missed doses and stock running out.
From worked shift to timesheet and invoice, without re-keying
Invoices are generated automatically and list every item charged. Charge for live-in care by the day, the week or the month, bill the NHS, local authorities and private payers, and raise ad hoc invoices for one-off services. Because finance uses the same data as the rota, numbers change fewer times on their way from a visit to a bank account.
AI built into the system your team already uses
In built AI tools within Careberry, with no setup fees and no long-term contract. AI appears where your staff already work, and every suggestion is reviewed and approved by a person before it touches a care record.
And everything around the care
One login for your managers, care staff and families. No extra tools to stitch together.
Staff and family apps
Staff see their rota and people's care plans, and record notes on a phone or tablet. Families can see daily notes and updates in their own app.
Recruitment, HR and training
Get new staff started faster with integrated recruitment and HR documents. Competencies are signed off in the built-in learning management system, and the training matrix updates automatically.
Staff leave and cover
Manage staff leave and unplanned absences in one place, so cover is arranged and care delivery carries on uninterrupted.
Reporting, quality and compliance
Customisable reports and data insights, plus incident reporting, care notes audits and audit trails to evidence quality for CQC and commissioners.
GP Connect
CQC-registered providers can securely access GP records, appointments and prescribing data inside Careberry.
Handover and communication
Shift handovers, messages to staff and updates to families, all in the same system.
Less admin. More time for care.
Built by people who have run care services, so everyday tasks take a couple of clicks, not hours of paperwork.
