The addition of CareSafely to Vector Solutions supports Vector’s mission to serve everyday heroes by delivering intelligent software solutions that empower them to make safer, smarter, and better decisions, and also introduces a new fast-growing vertical for Vector as the senior care industry employs more than three million frontlines workers in life-critical settings where safety and compliance challenges are faced every day.
Headquartered in Austin, Texas, CareSafely serves customers in senior living, skilled nursing, home health, and hospice settings. The CareSafely platform automates compliance workflows, and includes expert-developed, ready-to-use risk assessments, digital action plans, and competency checks, providing operators with 100% of the intelligence they need to analyze and take action on identified risk areas.
