Private Home Care doubles caregiver hiring with Homecare Pro, turning operational efficiency into a competitive advantage
About Private Home Care
Private Home Care is a family-founded, independent home care agency employing more than 500 caregivers and delivering over 5,000 weekly care hours across St. Louis, the Kansas City metro, Chicago, and Southern Illinois. As administrative demands grew, the agency sought a partner to automate HR tasks and free up team capacity in order to sustain its growth.

Challenge
Private Home Care’s recruiters and HR team were bogged down by manual processes: processing employment packets, collecting credentials, chasing caregivers for documents, and re-entering data across multiple systems. Struggling to escape this cycle, the team found that the growing administrative burden was throttling the agency’s ability to scale.

- Caregivers manage their own onboarding and compliance, with managers notified and able to step in when needed.
- Automated reminders ensure documents are submitted on time and credentials stay current.
- Real-time dashboards replaced spreadsheets, providing instant visibility into onboarding and compliance status for the entire organization.
- Automatic data sync with scheduling software eliminates data entry, reduces complexity, and minimizes errors.
- Self-configuration tools enable requirements to adapt to changing regulations.

Results
Private Home Care doubled its caregiver hiring in the first month of launching Homecare Pro. With greater confidence in staffing capacity, team members who were previously focused on document collection have refocused on operations: expanding scheduling bandwidth and enhancing recruiting efforts.
The efficiency gain rippled across the organization:
- Operational flexibility: A larger, better-documented caregiver pool reduced scheduling stress and empowered Private Home Care to accept more clients across its service areas.
- Fewer last-minute bonuses: Higher caregiver density reduced the need for overtime and incentive payouts to fill shifts.
- Capacity to grow: Reclaimed time enabled Private Home Care to reinvest in operations, adding scheduler capacity and improving team agility.
