Working as an independent support worker gives you the freedom to choose your clients, set your own rates, and work the hours that suit your life. But one part no one enjoys? Invoicing and chasing payments.
That’s where CareVicinity makes the biggest difference.
We take the stress out of admin so you can focus on what matters most: delivering great support.
When you work through CareVicinity, you don’t need to create your own invoices.
Here’s how it works:
Agree on the details
Set your rate, hours, and responsibilities with your client. The platform creates a clear service agreement so expectations are aligned from the start.
Complete the shift
Provide approved services backed by CareVicinity’s comprehensive insurance.
Log your hours
Either schedule shifts ahead of time or log them once completed.
We generate the invoice
CareVicinity automatically creates and sends the invoice to the funding body or client, no paperwork, no calculations.
Get paid weekly
Approved shifts are paid every Friday.
