- "Show me scheduling patterns across different time periods"
These enhancements make Looper a more powerful tool for accessing and understanding your organization's data, providing faster and more accurate answers to your business questions.
Shift Status Change Tracking
We've enhanced the shift hover card to provide better visibility into shift status changes. Now you can quickly see who last updated a shift, the reason why it was updated, and any additional notes about its current status. When hovering over a shift in either the profile schedule tab or the main shifts calendar, you can now:
- View shift status changes and updates instantly
- Easily change shift statuses by selecting a new status from the badge dropdown
- Update status reasons and notes directly
- View a complete history of changes and notes in the shift's activity feed
To keep everyone informed, any time a shift is modified, you'll be presented with options to:
- Select who initiated the change (client, caregiver, or office)
- Select from a pre-defined set of reasons (such as "Call Out" or "Scheduling Conflict")
- Optionally add notes to provide more detail
- Optionally alert relevant team members about the changes
We've also implemented pre-defined status reasons to ensure consistent reporting across your organization. For example:
- When marking a shift as canceled, you can specify if it was canceled by the caregiver, client or office
- When completing shifts on behalf of caregivers, document technical difficulties such as connectivity problems
- During caregiver reassignment, specify whether the change resulted from a call-out or no-call, no-show situation
Care Summary Requirement
Mobile App Updates
- Care summaries can now be completed during the clock-out process
- Existing care summary functionality remains available on the shift detail page
Web Platform Updates
- Similar to "Require Care Tasks" checkbox, we have added a new "Require Care Summary" option to care plans
- When enabled, care summaries become mandatory for shifts
Geofence Improvements
We've enhanced location management for care recipient profiles:
- View latitude and longitude coordinates below residence addresses
- Manually adjust coordinates when needed
- Quick access to Google Maps for precise location verification
- Added helpful tooltips explaining how location data affects clock-in/out and driving directions
Miscellaneous Fixes and Improvements
- Added profile tags active statuses as filter options for open shift posting
- Fixed pay modifier calculations in the looper system
- Prevented open shift notifications from being sent to inactive professionals
- Added ability to void and delete electronic invoices
- Updated mileage values to display with two decimal places for greater accuracy
We're excited to introduce our new Job Board feature, making it easier than ever to fill open shifts and connect caregivers with available work opportunities. Here's how it works:
Posting Open Shifts (Web Application)
Creating an Open Shift Post
When you have an unassigned shift, you can now post it to the Job Board directly from the shift details page. You have two options:
- Post a single shift
- Post the shift and all its future occurrences
If you choose to post "this and all following shifts", the system will automatically create a new schedule ID for these shifts. This helps us keep everything organized behind the scenes while maintaining a seamless experience for caregivers.
Targeting the Right Caregivers
While creating your post, you'll see a multi-select dropdown where you can choose which employee roles should see this opportunity. For example, you may only want people with the "Caregiver" role to see a particular shift. This ensures the right caregivers are seeing relevant opportunities.
- Note:Future enhancements to help target open shifts using AI are on the roadmap. These improvements will help match shifts with the most suitable caregivers based on their skills, experience, and preferences.
Adding Incentives
Need to make a shift more attractive? You can now add pay rate modifiers to unassigned shifts before posting them. These modifiers will be visible to caregivers when they view the shift, helping to incentivize coverage for harder-to-fill shifts. This works for:
- Hourly shifts (showing the modified hourly rate)
- Live-in shifts (showing the modified daily/weekly rate)
- Visit-based shifts (showing the modified hourly rate)
Monitoring Your Posts
On the shift detail page, you'll find a new open shift tile that shows you:
- How many caregivers have viewed the post
- How many have marked themselves as "not interested"
- An option to withdraw the post if needed
- A system generated summary of client profile and care needs
If you need to withdraw an open shift post, just click the withdraw button. The shift(s) will return to an "unassigned" status.
Finding and Claiming Shifts (Mobile App)
Browsing Open Shifts
Caregivers will see a new Job Board tab in their mobile app that lists of all open and claimed shifts, ordered by date with quick-view information including:
- Client name
- Whether it's a one-time or recurring shift
- Pay rate (except for visit-based shifts)
Getting More Details
Tapping on a shift reveals:
- Detailed care tasks
- Specific shift requirements
- Complete schedule information
- For recurring shifts, the full pattern of occurrences
Responding to Shifts
Caregivers have two options when viewing a shift:
- Claim the shift - This immediately adds it to their schedule
- Mark as "Not Interested" - This removes it from their view
When claiming a recurring shift, they'll get all future occurrences of that shift automatically added to their schedule.
Notifications & Updates
Staying Informed
The system automatically sends notifications in several situations:
- When new shifts matching a caregiver's role are posted
- When a shift is claimed (notifying other employees with the same role as the post author)
Don't want these notifications? No problem - they can be muted in your account settings.
Automatic Cleanup
To keep things tidy, the system automatically handles a few situations:
- If a shift's start time passes, it's automatically removed from the Job Board and returns to "unassigned"
- If every qualified caregiver marks themselves as "not interested," the shift is removed and returns to "unassigned"
This new system is designed to make filling open shifts easier and more efficient for everyone. Schedulers get better tools for managing coverage, while caregivers get an easy way to find additional work opportunities to increase their hours.
Fixes and Improvements
- Filter, page position, and row expansions are now remembered throughout a user's session, meaning anytime they navigate back to the billing items table the last view will be restored.
- A "Reset" button has been added to the top of the table so that users can revert back to the first page of an empty filter state. The date range is still maintained.
- Native app shift detail pages now include shift method (Hourly, Live-In, Visit-Based). If "Live-In", the duration is "All Day"
Implementation Note:
This feature is available at no additional cost but requires configuration by the Careswitch team for your workspace. To activate these new payroll features, please contact our support team with the following information:
- Your payroll frequency (weekly, bi-weekly, etc.)
- The historical date from which you'd like your payroll records backfilled
Our team will configure your workspace and notify you once the features are ready for use.
Introducing Payroll Runs
Dedicated Payroll Page
We've launched a centralized payroll management system that transforms how you process your payroll. The new payroll page provides a clear overview of all your Payroll Runs, with each run showing its current status (Draft, Processing, or Paid). You'll find comprehensive summaries showing total hours and amounts for regular time, overtime, double time, and travel time.
Each Payroll Run displays an intuitive progress bar that helps you track:
- Green segments showing approved shifts ready for export
- Orange segments indicating shifts pending review
- Blue segments representing projected (upcoming) shifts
This visual system helps you quickly identify which Payroll Runs need attention and track your progress through the payroll process.
Status Changes and Pay Period Locking
Once you've completed processing a Payroll Run, you can mark it as "Paid" to prevent accidental modifications. This creates a reliable audit trail and ensures that processed payroll remains consistent with what was exported to your payroll provider.
- Complete approval of all items is required to change status from Draft to Processing or Paid
- Once a Payroll Run is marked as Processing or Paid, all payable items are locked against further changes
- Status changes are permanent unless manually unlocked by system administrators
- This ensures exported data remains consistent with your payroll provider's records
Export Behavior
To ensure accuracy in overtime calculations and maintain data consistency, the export process includes important safeguards:
- All payable line items in a Payroll Run will be exported, regardless of approval status
- A warning is displayed before export if unapproved items exist
- The warning notes that the export may become outdated if unapproved items are modified later
Timesheet Management
Accessible Timesheet Views
Employee timesheets are now available in two convenient locations:
- Within Payroll Runs: Access and manage timesheets in the context of specific pay periods
- On Professional Profiles: View an employee's complete timesheet history through a new dedicated payroll tab
This dual access ensures you can review timesheets in the context that makes most sense for your task - whether you're processing payroll or reviewing an individual employee's history.
Visual Timeline Interface
Each employee's timesheet now features a visual timeline that makes it easy to understand their work patterns and overtime. The timeline uses a color-coded system:
- Light gray blocks represents travel time
- Dark gray blocks represent regular working hours
- Yellow blocks indicate overtime hours
- Red blocks show double overtime periods
You can hover over any time block to see detailed shift information, making it simple to track hours and verify accuracy.
Multi-Period Shift Handling
The system now automatically handles shifts that cross pay period boundaries. When a shift spans multiple pay periods, it's automatically split and allocated to the appropriate periods while maintaining accurate overtime calculations. This ensures accurate payment without manual intervention.
Change Protection
The system includes safeguards to prevent unintended changes:
- Warning prompts when editing rates, durations, or amounts that would affect previously approved items (like overtime calculations)
- Alerts when modifications to one shift would impact other approved shifts
- Hard prevention of any changes to locked Payroll Runs (those marked as Processing or Paid)
Canceled Shift Management
We've introduced new flexibility in handling canceled shifts:
- Option to mark canceled shifts as payable while canceling
- Ability to adjust payable hours after cancellation
- Support for partial pay scenarios (such as show-up pay in California)
- Clear documentation of cancellation reasons and pay decisions
Dismissed Employee Processing
When an employee is terminated, the system automatically creates a special "dismissal payroll run" that consolidates all their outstanding pay from current and previous pay periods. This separation makes it easy to process final paychecks without affecting your regular payroll cycle.
Select a professional status within the "Inactive" stage to inactive to initiate a dismissal payroll.
Automated Review & Approval System
AI-Powered Shift Review
Building on our successful billing review system, we've expanded our AI capabilities to include payroll processing. This enhancement brings the same level of automation and accuracy to your payroll workflow that you've experienced with billing. How it works:
Rule Configuration
- In your workspace settings, each AI rule now has checkboxes for "Apply to Billing" and "Apply to Payroll"
- Rules can be set as blocking or non-blocking independently for each function
- Example: A late clock-in rule could be blocking for billing but non-blocking for payroll
- Rules can be configured to check both billing and payroll simultaneously, streamlining the review process
Shift Processing
- When a shift is completed, the AI automatically reviews both billable and payable items
- Payable items are always added to timesheets to ensure complete overtime calculations
- Billable items must pass all rules before being automatically added to invoices
- Items can be approved independently - a shift might be approved for payroll but held for billing review, or vice versa
Exception Handling
The new shift detail page now shows exceptions exactly where they matter:
- Billing exceptions appear directly on the billable item card
- Payroll exceptions appear on the payable item card
- Each exception is clearly labeled as blocking, non-blocking, or resolved
- Users can click exceptions to see the AI's detailed analysis
- All historical exception resolutions are maintained for audit purposes
Resolution Process
When addressing exceptions:
- Edit the relevant item (billable or payable)
- Click "AI Review" to trigger a new evaluation
- The system checks both billing and payroll criteria
- Successfully resolved exceptions are marked as "Resolved"
- Items are automatically added to timesheets once approved
Manual Review Controls
You can approve individual payroll items or completed shifts in 3 different places:
- Shift detail page
- Professional profile > Payroll tab
- Payroll Run > Timesheet
The system maintains the integrity of your approvals by warning you when changes might affect other approved items. For example, if you modify a pay rate that would affect an approved overtime calculation, you'll receive a detailed warning explaining the impact before proceeding.
Enhanced AI Shift Review System
New Data Points for Review
The AI system now evaluates an expanded set of data points when reviewing shifts, enabling more sophisticated and accurate automated reviews.

- Stages and statuses can be applied to professional profiles to track their journey from recruiting through employment
- Each stage has automated rules for workspace access and shift eligibility
- Default statuses are provided for each stage, which can be adjusted to fit agency processes
Professional Profiles Management
Creating Professionals
Enhanced profile creation process with new features and default settings:
- By default, new profiles have access to the workspace with visibility limited to their own profile and chat functionality
- Initial permissions are set to the lowest possible settings for security
- Custom roles can be created to control access levels for new professionals:
- Configure permissions as needed (more or less access)
- Apply custom roles to professional profiles (e.g., create and apply a "Prospect" role)
Profile creation source determines initial stage:
- Profiles created from "Recruiting" default to "Prospect" stage
- Profiles created from "Workforce" default to "Onboarding" stage
New communication features during profile creation:

We believe this new feature will significantly enhance your ability to manage and organize profiles within your workspace. As always, we welcome your feedback and suggestions for further improvements.
We’ve made significant updates to streamline service management, enhancing the integration between sales, care planning, and delivery. Here's what’s new:
Unified Service Management
- Client Services:We've simplified how you manage care by eliminating "Referral Profiles" and adopting a unified service model. Instead of managing separate profiles for referrals and care recipients, the focus is now on the services your business provides. This shift streamlines collaboration between sales and clinical teams, enabling them to work together mo
Example: A client receiving hourly care is interested in adding physical therapy services. The sales team can create and manage the new physical therapy service within the same client profile, while the clinical team continues to oversee and track the client’s existing care. Both teams can work independently—sales focusing on closing the new service, and clinical managing the ongoing care—without overlap, but with full visibility into the client's overall care journey.
- Toggle Between Services and Profiles:You can now toggle between “Services” and “Profiles” when selecting "Care Recipients" in the primary navigation.
- Updated Sales Navigation:The "Sales" primary navigation no longer displays referral profiles; instead, it features a table of services associated with care recipient profiles.
- Service Lifecycle Insight Tiles:Each service table, in Sales and Care Recipients tabs, now features tiles showing the number of services in each stage of the service lifecycle, providing clear visibility into progress.
- Create Services:You can now create a new service directly from the "Sales" or "Care Recipients" tabs, either by selecting an existing care recipient or creating a new profile.
AI-Powered Intake Form and Refreshed Service Detail Page
We're excited to introduce our new AI-powered intake form, designed to streamline the client onboarding process. You can customize the default intake form by navigating to Workspace Settings > Forms for your sales team.
- Seamless Intake Documentation:To enter a new intake, simply go to the client's service page and select Intake. You'll be guided to the intake form, where AI can assist you in completing it—just like with our Assessment and Care Plan forms.
- Version Control for Intakes:Keep track of changes over time with versioning, now available for intakes, just like with all our other AI-generated forms.
- Effortless Assessment Generation:Once the intake is completed, head over to the Assessment section for the same service and click Generate from Intake. AI will instantly create a comprehensive nursing assessment based on the intake data.
Redesigned Service Detail Page
The service detail page has been redesigned for smoother workflows and improved collaboration.
- Direct Editing:You can now edit the service name, start date, and end date directly from the main service detail page.
- Service Line Template:Quickly change the Service Line Template directly from the service details page.
- Service Stage/Status Updates:Manage the service stage or status directly within the service details.
- Consolidated Forms:AI-powered forms, including intake forms, assessments, and care plans, are now housed on the service detail page.
- Latest Forms Displayed:The service detail page now only displays the most recent version of each form (intake, assessment, care plan) for a cleaner, more streamlined view.
- Form Versions:Historical versions of forms can still be accessed directly on the form itself, but are no longer shown on the service detail page.
Workspace Settings Changes
Lifecycles
- Renamed:The Lifecycle for "Referrals" is now the Lifecycle for "Services," better reflecting the complete journey of a service from sales to care management and delivery.
- Custom Statuses:You can now configure custom statuses for each stage of the service lifecycle to suit your agency’s needs.
Forms
- New AI Intake Template:Added the AI-powered intake form template under Workspace Settings > Forms.
- Renamed:"AI Forms" to “Forms.”
Service Lines
- Default Service Line Template:A "Default" flag has been added to service templates. The default template is auto-applied when creating a new client service or workspace service line template.
- Renamed:"Service Templates" to “Service Lines.”
Roles
- Clarified Permissions:Users with "View" Care Recipient Services can view services, while only those with "Manage" Care Recipient Services have the ability to make updates.
Improved Payable Details on Shifts
We've enhanced the payable details section within shift details to provide greater transparency into how caregiver time is calculated. Key updates include:
- Detailed Time Entries:The start and stop times for regular time, travel time, and overtime are now displayed for greater clarity.
- Overtime Breakdown:If applicable, overtime details are shown in the payable section, with hoverable tooltips that explain how overtime is calculated based on your workspace settings.
- Captured Time vs. Payable Items:The shift details page now clearly displays the time captured by the caregiver (next to the clock icon), along with the time tracking mode your workspace uses (Recorded, Actual, or Scheduled). Below the captured time, you’ll find the payable items with their respective start and stop times, if applicable. This allows you to quickly compare what was originally captured versus any adjustments made to the payable items.
- Higher Likelihood of Overtime:Since travel time now counts towards overtime calculations, caregivers who log frequent travel time (e.g., 30 minutes per shift) are more likely to accrue overtime.
Chat Improvements
- Persistent Channel List: Easily switch between conversations with a new persistent channel list, defaulting to the channel with the latest activity when you access the Chat tab from the primary navigation.
- Unread Message Badges: Stay informed with unread message badges for all channels.
- Primary Navigation Badge: Keep track of new messages with an unread messages badge on the primary workspace navigation.
- Direct Messaging: A new button on employee profiles now allows you to message any active employee directly, facilitating seamless communication.
Fixes & Improvements
- Billing Items Table Filter: Resolved an issue preventing filters from working correctly on the billing items table.
- Page Reset Fix: Fixed a bug that was resetting the billing items page when an action was taken on an item in the table.
New Referral Tracking Features
We're excited to introduce new features that enable businesses to capture and track referrals before they become care recipients. This is the first of many sales features we plan to release in the coming months.
Introducing Referral Profiles
Efficiently gather information and track the status of potential clients.
- New Profile Type:Added a new workspace profile type called "Referral." Designed to help your sales and intake team gather information about potential care recipients before they sign up for services.
- Profile Structure:Referral profiles do not have a services tab, unlike Care Recipient profiles. Services cannot be created for referrals until they are converted to Care Recipients.
- Conversion Process:Once a referral is "won," you can convert the referral profile to a care recipient profile and create services to provide care. All information gathered on the referral profile will be retained when converted to a care recipient.
Tracking Referral Progress
Easily monitor and update referral statuses through the sales lifecycle.
- Status Switcher:Located at the top right of Referral profiles, the new profile status switcher allows you to change the status of a referral at any time.
- Organized Statuses:Profile statuses are grouped by stages to help organize and track referrals efficiently. The flexible status system allows any status to be applied to any profile, regardless of its current status.
- Customizable Statuses:Statuses can be customized in the workspace settings. More information about creating custom statuses can be found below.
Notification of Status Changes
Keep your team informed when a referral's status changes.
- Team Notifications:When changing the status of a referral profile, you can optionally write an update and select team members to notify. Selected employees will receive a notification that links directly to the updated referral profile.
- Enhanced Activity Feed:The activity tab on referral profiles now includes all status change events, providing better visibility and audit trails.
Sales Tab in Workspace Navigation
Centralized access to referral profiles under the new Sales tab.
- Sales Tab Access:Referral profiles can now be accessed from the primary navigation under a new tab called "Sales."
- Referral Profiles Table:The sales tab contains a table listing all referral profiles in your workspace, categorized by sales stage and status. New referral profiles can be created by selecting "Create" at the top right of the sales page.
- Sales Stage Overview:The top of the sales page displays the number of referral profiles in each sales stage. Filter referral profiles by selecting the tiles at the top of the page, with additional filtering options by referral profile status.
- Access Control:Configure who can access the workspace sales tab in Workspace Settings: Roles
Configuring Profile Lifecycles
Enhance your sales process with structured and customizable profile lifecycles.
- New Category:Added a new category to workspace settings called "Profile Lifecycles," starting with Referral profiles.
- Structured Stages and Statuses:Profile lifecycles contain hard-coded stages that provide structure and organization to the sales process. Each stage includes a set of default, hard-coded statuses that your business can use to indicate a profile's status in the sales process.
- Custom Status Options:You can create custom statuses within each stage, including naming the status and selecting a color.
AI Improvements
- Expanded Shift Edit Functions:Introduced new AI capabilities to assist with managing billable and payable shift data, including rates and rate modifiers. This enhancement streamlines the process of editing and correcting shifts during the shift review process.
- Automated Creation of Care Tasks:Added AI functionality to automatically create care tasks based on client needs and care plans. This improvement enhances efficiency and accuracy during care plan creation.
Important Update: Mobile Clock In/Out Changes
- Effective August 9:We will no longer support clocking in/out using mobile web browsers. Instead, we are releasing support for iOS 16, extending compatibility to iPhone 8 and newer models.
- Enhanced User Experience:Users on older devices will now benefit from improved features, including push notifications, offline mode, and better accessibility.
Fixes and Improvements
- Resolved an issue where shifts were incorrectly marked as having no caregiver.
- Addressed an issue where shifts marked as "late" were not transitioning to "in progress" upon clock-in.
