The Caring24 platform
A modern staffing workflow your team will actually want to use.
Inspired by the best workforce platforms in the sector, designed for the realities of UK care, supported living and nursing services.
Post a shift
Set your role, rate and times — then go.
Care home managers post nurse, carer, support worker, or HCA shifts in seconds. You choose the role, the pay rate, the location and the times — Caring24 takes care of getting it in front of the right people.
Match with verified workers
Choose from vetted carers, support workers and nurses.
Browse worker profiles, ratings, qualifications and shift history before you accept. Build a list of trusted favourites who can return to the same residents — shift after shift.
See every shift at a glance
One weekly view across every role and unit.
Day shifts, night shifts, applications, unfilled slots — all in one calendar. Filter by location, unit, role or staff so the picture is always clear.
Approve and pay only after the work is done
Digital timesheet approval, then a clean invoice.
Review the worker's profile and approve the timesheet in one tap. An invoice is generated only after approval — no surprises, no hidden uplifts, no paying for work that wasn't done.
Use cases
Flexible enough for everyday cover and urgent staffing needs.
Care homes
Cover planned rota gaps, annual leave, short-notice sickness, and higher dependency periods with one modern staffing process.
Supported living & shelters
Bring in experienced support workers for waking nights, day cover, and specialist service needs without relying on scattered agency calls.
Nursing-led services
Source registered nurses for clinical shifts, medication rounds, and higher-acuity cover while maintaining visibility over who is booked.

What makes us different
We predict and fill shifts before you go short.
Caring24 is built on AI from the ground up — not bolted on as an afterthought.
Know before you're short
Our AI analyses 12 months of your staffing patterns, current leave requests, and seasonal trends — and alerts you to gaps 4 weeks before they happen.
The right person, automatically
When a shift is posted, our algorithm ranks available workers by proximity, skills, previous experience and approval rating — and sends targeted invites, not mass broadcasts.
Always CQC inspection-ready
Auto-track every worker's DBS, NMC pin, and mandatory training. Get alerts 60 days before expiry. We never let an unqualified worker reach your door.

How it works
From shift request to paid invoice
Post a shift in seconds
Your manager creates the request — role, time, location, pay rate. Your team sets the rates that work for your service.
Get matched to verified staff
Caring24 surfaces qualified nurses, carers, and support workers in your area. Review profiles and accept with one tap.
Approve timesheet, then invoice
Digital timesheets are signed off in one tap. An invoice is generated only after approval — pay after the work is done.
No public pricing table
A direct sales conversation instead.
Pricing details are not published on this website. Where pricing would normally appear, you are guided to contact the Caring24 sales team so we can explain the structure directly — based on your service type, locations, and the roles you need to cover.
