A blank form, filled in from memory at the end of the shift.

Medications

Paper logs, missed initials and doses tracked from a binder.

Reminders when a dose is due and a record of every dose given, refused or held.

Written by the app. Approved by your clinician.

Every section comes from the referral and the plan library, in your own approved wording. Staff open any goal to change it, remove what doesn't fit, or add more from a dropdown.

  • Thirty-two need areas, from anger and trauma to fire setting and sexually harmful behavior.
  • Sensitive areas require a clinician's safety plan before approval.
  • Reviews are drafted from the last plan, so nothing starts from zero.

Created for you. Waiting for your approval.

Plans, reviews and reports land in one approval list. Read it, change anything you need, and approve. No one can approve their own work.

  • Clinical plans go to a clinician; reports go to a supervisor.
  • Return anything for changes with a note.
  • Approved records lock, and every version is kept.

Incident reports in one tap.

On a phone, in the moment. Staff tap Report incident, describe what happened and what they did, and the app handles the rest.

  • Child, home, time and staff on shift filled in for them.
  • Notification reminders for guardian, caseworker and licensing when required.
  • Sent straight to the supervisor's approval list.
  • Linked to the child's safety alerts and treatment plan.

Reminders arrive before anything is late.

Important information goes to the right people by email and on the dashboard, so nothing depends on someone remembering.

  • Medication doses due and doses missed.
  • Treatment plan deadlines and reviews.
  • Appointments, court dates and family visits.
  • Staff CPR, training and background checks before they expire.

School reports find the right child on their own.

Report cards, progress reports, attendance notices and ARD paperwork come in by email. The app reads them, files them in the right child's record, and puts what changed where everyone can see it.

The school emails a report

A progress report for Avery arrives in your program's inbox.

Picked up automatically

Matched and filed

The app recognizes the student, attaches the report to Avery's file and notes the changes: a new grade in math, two absences.

Saved to the child's file

On the calendar and plan

The parent-teacher conference goes on the calendar, and the education goal on Avery's plan shows the update.

Everyone sees it

Every part of a child's life, on one calendar.

Arrivals, doctor and dental appointments, family visits, court dates, games and practices, meetings, plan reviews and birthdays. Changes from reports and emails show up on their own.

Every shift knows who needs closer supervision.

Risks found in the referral become safety alerts on the child's file, the client list and the dashboard, so a new staff member never walks in blind.

  • Fire setting, sexually harmful behavior, fighting, isolating, runaway risk and more.
  • When a referral says a risk is denied, staff decide instead of the app.
  • Add or remove alerts after admission, with a reason recorded.

The service-plan clock starts at arrival. We watch it for you.

Every plan and review due date is set the moment a child arrives, matched to your license type, with reminders before anything is late, all the way to discharge.

Records you can stand behind at a licensing review.

Children's records deserve more care than a shared drive and a filing cabinet.

Your organization only

Every organization has its own private space. No other program can see or open your records.

The right people see the right things

Roles for administrators, case managers, clinicians, care staff and payroll. Payroll never sees clinical records.

Nothing quietly changes

Every change needs a reason, and every earlier version is kept. Approved plans lock.

A second set of eyes

No one can approve their own plan, report or timesheet. Clinical plans need a clinician.

A full audit trail

Every sign-in, view and change is logged with who did it and when.

Your data is yours
