CareFirst Ireland
Dublin, Ireland“FendanaCura transformed how we manage our 120 caregivers. The AI scheduling alone saved us 15 hours per week on rostering, and GPS clock-in eliminated timesheet disputes entirely. What used to take our scheduling coordinator two full days now takes under an hour.”
The Challenge
CareFirst Ireland was spending 20+ hours per week on manual scheduling across 120 caregivers serving 350+ clients. Coordinators juggled spreadsheets, phone calls, and text messages to manage shift assignments, last-minute changes, and caregiver availability. Timesheet disputes were frequent due to manual clock-in records, and client families complained about lack of visibility into care delivery.
The Solution
CareFirst implemented FendanaCura's AI-powered scheduling, GPS-verified time tracking, and family portal. The AI scheduler automatically matches caregivers to clients based on skills, location, availability, and continuity preferences. GPS clock-in/out eliminated timesheet disputes. The family portal gave client families real-time access to care updates.

In Their Words
Before FendanaCura, our scheduling coordinator started every Monday at 7 AM with three spreadsheets, a WhatsApp group, and a headache. By Tuesday afternoon, she'd have the week's roster mostly sorted — only to have five caregivers request changes by Wednesday. It was chaos, and our clients felt it. Now, our AI scheduler handles 90% of the matching automatically. We only intervene for exceptions. Our coordinator went from firefighter to strategist overnight.
