This app is for people who work at SAAR Homecare. You sign in with the account the office gives you. What it does: Shifts: See today's visits and the days ahead, with the client's address and directions. If the office changes something, you get a notice. Hours: Clock in and out on your phone. Breaks go in when you clock out, and your week's total is always there. Chat: One to one with colleagues and a group per client. Send photos, documents and voice notes. With no signal a message waits and goes out as soon as you are back online. Visit reports: Fill in the report at the end of a visit: mood, activities, medication and anything that happened. The draft saves itself. Time off: Ask for leave in the app and see how many days you have left. It also works offline, and is in Portuguese and English.
