WellSky Personal Care (ClearCare) Alternative

WellSky Personal Care, formerly ClearCare, is a broad private duty platform: recruiting, scheduling, billing, payroll, a family portal, EVV integrations and AI add-ons. AideBook is a smaller tool for private-pay agencies that want every visit documented, signed and on the timesheet without the rest.

Which is right for you

An honest fit check.

WellSky Personal Care is likely the better fit if you…

  • want recruiting, billing, payroll and a family portal in one system
  • bill Medicaid and need EVV integrations or e-claims
  • belong to a franchise network that standardizes on WellSky
  • want AI and analytics add-ons

AideBook is likely the better fit if you…

  • serve mostly private-pay or long-term-care-insurance clients
  • want caregivers documenting visits without GPS tracking
  • have caregivers in places with poor signal
  • want timesheets and aide notes that print like your paper forms
  • want one plan with everything in it, set up in an afternoon

The difference in one paragraph

WellSky Personal Care covers most of running an agency, from hiring caregivers to collecting payment from families. AideBook covers the visit: the schedule, the caregiver’s checklist, the client’s signature, the compliance checks and the hours. If your agency already has payroll and invoicing handled and wants the documentation right, the smaller tool is quicker to set up and easier for caregivers to learn.
