How Lakeside Care Group Reduced Rota Admin by 65%
The Challenge
Lakeside's HR team was spending over 20 hours per week manually managing rotas across 12 sites, using a combination of spreadsheets, phone calls, and WhatsApp messages. Compliance documents were tracked in a shared drive with no expiry alerts, leading to last-minute scrambles.
The Solution
CareShift replaced their manual processes with centralised rota planning, real-time availability matching, and automated compliance document tracking with expiry notifications.
“We went from spending a whole day on rotas to about two hours. The compliance alerts alone have saved us from some very difficult situations.”
