About Care Hires

Founded in 2017, Care Hires was born out of the growing frustration experienced by Care Homes, towards the outdated recruitment and temporary staffing processes within the Care industry. Care groups made up of multiple services that require agency staffing typically have to manage these agency rotas through excel spreadsheets and email confirmations. This process alone causes confusion and costly error leading to overbilling and time waste, just managing these assignments.
