For care home teams
Great care starts with people who feel seen.
From a reassuring word to a thoughtful night shift, your people make your home what it is. CareKudos brings their good work, family thank-yous and Well-led evidence together.

Every shift sees the good work.
Good care at 3am counts as much as good care at lunchtime. CareKudos puts it in one place, so the whole home can see it.
- Recognition from colleagues and managers in one feed
- Your home's values linked to every post
- Good Catch for safety observations, and what changed
- Manager approval before posts go live
Your own values and values alignment are part of the Advance and Enterprise plans.
Families
Let families thank the right person.
Relatives can thank the carer who made the difference. A Family Star is worth five Peer Stars, and every thank-you adds to your evidence for Caring and Responsive.
- Family portal and registration
- Anonymous thank-you messages, if a family prefers
- Up to two Family Stars per relative each month
Family features are part of the Advance and Enterprise plans.

Stop rebuilding months of activity before an inspection. The report builds itself while your team works.
- Evidence sorted under the CQC's key questions
- Staff Voice results and values alignment
- Inspector Mode hides names before you share
- Tamper-evident PDF reports
Questions
Care home questions.
Which plan fits a single care home?
Core is built for one service with up to 50 staff. Advance adds the family portal, Family Stars and values analytics, for up to three services with unlimited staff.
Does it work for nursing homes too?
Yes. CareKudos works for residential and nursing homes, alongside your existing care management and rota systems.
Do carers need a work phone?
No. Carers use the app on their own phone, on iOS or Android.
How quickly can we start?
On day one of your pilot we set up your home and your values with you. Your team can start posting as soon as your home is set up.
