Scheduling built for senior living
The schedule that finds coverage for you.
Build and publish your schedule. When someone calls out, Skedra finds eligible staff, handles outreach, tracks responses, and keeps the schedule up to date.
Overtime control

Skedra tracks weekly hours before coverage is assigned. If a pickup or trade would create overtime, Skedra texts the manager for approval before allowing it.
