The week before AppyShift
What home care managers are juggling
A name in a text
A schedule alert should not carry a client name or address outside the app.
A license in a folder
Someone is assigned with a card that is no longer current.
One week in AppyShift
The same week, with this industry's tools
Each screen is a real AppyShift page from a sample company, showing a tool this industry turns on.
Monday
The visits for the month
Upcoming visits show the day, the time, and the caregiver. Client names and addresses stay off this view.
- Published and draft visits
- Client details stay behind sign-in
Upcoming visits from a sample agency. The list shows when and which caregiver. Client names and addresses are not on this screen. Texts, email, push, and calendar feeds say only Home visit.
When you add a visit
Schedule the visits
Pick the days, the time, and whether a caregiver is assigned or the visit stays open.
- Repeat visits across the week
- A visit can stay open for coverage
Visits are scheduled on this form. This sample does not show a client name or a street address. Outbound messages say only Home visit.
Before the visit
Cards the agency records
A visit can require the license or certificate you recorded. A missing or expired card stays off that visit.
- CNA, HHA, CPR, and nursing cards you keep
- AppyShift does not confirm a license with the state
These are the cards the agency records. AppyShift does not confirm a license with the state.
Between visits
Mileage the agency sets
The agency sets the mileage rate, the road factor, and whether travel time is paid. This screen does not list clients.
- No client names or street addresses
- The amount leaves with the hours export
The agency sets these mileage rules. This screen has no client names or street addresses. Amounts leave with the hours export. AppyShift does not run payroll. Outbound messages still say only Home visit.
Turned on for this industry
What signup sets up
Scheduling, time, messages, and callout coverage are available to every company. These are the extra tools this industry starts with. You can change them in setup.
Visits
The only setup that turns visits on.
Caregiver cards
The licenses and certificates you record.
Outbound privacy
Texts, email, push, and calendar feeds say only Home visit.
This setup does not turn on tips or census staffing. Certification checks use the cards you record, and can keep someone off a shift when a required card is missing or expired. AppyShift does not confirm a license with the state. Approved hours leave in a payroll export (ADP, Gusto, UKG, Paychex, Paycom, Paylocity, or a CSV). AppyShift does not run payroll.

Questions from home care managers
What this setup does, and what it leaves with you.
Will a text or calendar alert include the client's name or address?
No. Texts, email, push, calendar feeds, and chat alerts say only "Home visit." Client details stay behind sign-in.
Does AppyShift confirm a caregiver's license with the state?
No. License checks use the certifications you record. Your agency decides who can be assigned.
Scheduling and time for visit teams
Publish the week, cover a callout, and export hours. Visits, mileage, and license checks are what this setup adds.
