Care management software, compared

How Nanum compares

Most established UK care management systems are capable single-agency tools. Nanum covers the same core back office — rostering, visit management, eMAR, care planning, invoicing and a carer mobile app with family access — and then does two things a single-agency tool can't: it finds you verified freelance carers nearby, and it lets you safely share carers across providers when your own team can't cover a shift.

In short

Nanum matches other leading care management platforms feature-for-feature on the core, and adds two things a single-agency tool can't: find verified freelance carers, and share carers across providers to cover shifts.

What only Nanum does

Find carers (freelancers)

Book verified freelance carers near a visit. Freelancers verify once at the Nanum layer and pick up work across every agency — verify once, work anywhere.

Carer sharing across providers

Safely borrow a vetted carer from a partner provider by proximity when your own team can't cover — request → accept, with a consent-scoped safe-handover brief. Competitors are single-agency; Nanum is not.
