Whether you are a home care or human service agency that has formal schedules or not, chances are you have encountered times when direct support staff has either been late, no-showed, or called off a shift that was assigned to them.

Here are some reasons why transitioning to an Agency Management Platform, such as Connect, will solve your employee scheduling needs.
