One App for Every Part of Respite Care — Not Five Scattered Tools.
My Respite Care grew out of a past client project — building operations software for a respite care agency and watching, up close, how scattered the day-to-day really was. Staff logged shifts in one place, wrote case notes in another, and client files sat as paper in a cabinet. My Respite Care puts all of it — shifts, case notes, care plans, client details, funding — into one connected app, for staff and clients alike.

Born From Watching an Agency Juggle Five Different Systems
My Respite Care didn't start as a product idea. It started as a past client project — building operations software for a respite care agency as a facilitator managed staff, clients, schedules, and care documentation across a growing team of support workers.
The process was scattered. Staff signed in and out of shifts in one tool. Case notes lived somewhere else. Client details and care plans were tracked separately, and a lot of it was still paper — files in a cabinet, notes on clipboards. Nothing talked to anything else, and every handoff was a chance for something to get lost.
My Respite Care exists to fix that: one app where staff sign in and out of shifts, see their shift details, view client information and care plans, and leave case notes — all in the same place they're already working. And it extends to clients too, with a portal that gives them visibility into their own care, built around what the agency chooses to share.
Five tools, one job
Shift logging, case notes, and client files were all separate — staff and admins were re-entering the same information in multiple places just to get through the day.
Paper still had a place in it
Client care plans and documents weren't fully digitized. A cabinet of paper files sat alongside the digital tools, disconnected from everything else.
One app, everything connected
My Respite Care brings shift management, case notes, client details, care plans, and a configurable client portal into a single, connected system.
Fewer apps to log into means more time actually spent on care — for staff and for the clients they support.
Everything a Respite Care Team Needs, In One Place
My Respite Care replaces the scattered mix of shift trackers, note-taking tools, and paper files with a single app — designed around how a respite care team actually works day to day.
Staff Clock In, See Their Shift, Get to Work
Staff sign in and out of shifts directly in the app, with full shift details on hand — who they're supporting, where, and when. No separate time-tracking tool needed.
Documentation, Right Where the Shift Happens
Case notes are logged in the same app as the shift itself — no switching tools, no rewriting the same information twice. Notes stay attached to the shift and the client they belong to.
Everything Staff Need to Know, On Hand
Staff can see the client details and care plans relevant to their shift — replacing the paper files and disconnected records that used to live in a cabinet.
Clients Log In Too — And Only See What's Chosen for Them
Clients get their own login, with a portal built around agency choice: upcoming care schedules, past case notes, care plans and profiles, and funding information can each be turned on or off. Every agency decides what its clients see.
The Operational Layer Underneath It All
Behind the staff and client experience, the app manages scheduling and funding tracking — the operational backbone that used to require its own separate system.
Every Byte Stays in Canada
All application data — client records, staff information, case notes, care plans — is hosted entirely within Canada. For a sector handling sensitive health and personal information, that's not a footnote, it's a requirement agencies are actively looking for.

A Look Inside My Respite Care
Screenshots of the live product — staff shift view, case notes, and the client portal.
"Respite care is relationship work. Every tool switch, every re-entered note, is a minute not spent with the person you're actually there for."
"This came directly out of a past client project — a facilitator managing staff and clients across five different systems, with paper files still sitting in a cabinet. My Respite Care puts shifts, case notes, care plans, and client details into one app, and gives clients their own view into their care — with their data kept right here in Canada."
One App, Instead of a Scattered Process
My Respite Care is live today — built to take a scattered, multi-tool process and turn it into one connected system for staff, admins, and clients alike.
Shift sign-in/out, case notes, client details, and care plans — no more switching between separate tools.
Client records and care plans move out of the filing cabinet and into a secure, searchable system.
Agencies decide exactly what clients can see — schedules, notes, care plans, profiles, or funding — all configurable.
Every piece of client and staff data stays hosted within Canada.
