What teams are saying

Trusted by healthcare and community organisations globally

"Get Home Safe is an essential tool for any organisation working in our communities. It is a risk mitigation system, a key safety system, and we wouldn't want to be without the system."

Manaaki Tāngata | Victim Support, New Zealand

"GetHomeSafe establishes a structured check-in process for care teams returning home, enables location tracking, and demonstrates to regulators (CQC) that the organization has implemented safety systems—a key advantage during compliance inspections."

Radfield Home Care, United Kingdom

"As the CEO of an organisation where the bulk of the team work remotely and are lone workers, GetHomeSafe gives me the confidence that the team have the tools they need to help keep them safe."

After-hours & on-call

Visits don't stop at 5pm. Late-night and weekend care happens when the office is empty and no one's watching.

Rural & travelling

Long drives, remote roads and patchy coverage mean a worker can be a long way from help when it matters most.

Why current processes fail

Your lone worker policy exists, but does it work?

Most teams are getting by on tools that were never built for safety, and that staff quietly stop using.

WHAT TEAMS USE TODAY
WITH GETHOMESAFE
Manual check-ins every 2 hours
A text or call that's easy to forget, and tells you nothing when it doesn't arrive.
Automated timed check-ins
Configurable intervals. Missed one? The system notices and escalates automatically.
Static risk assessments filed away
A paper form filled out once and forgotten. It doesn't reflect what the worker actually walks into today. a new client, a changed environment, an escalating situation.
Built-in risk assessments
Workers complete a risk check before each visit. Profiles update as conditions change, so the people responding always have current information.
Vehicle tracking, not people
Vehicle tracking tells you where the vehicle is. Not whether your person is okay.
Worker-level visibility, 24/7
Location, journey, and status, per person, not per vehicle. Works after hours.

How gethomesafe helps

Turn your lone-worker policy into a process that actually runs.

Purpose-built for safety, not a CRM bolt-on or a vehicle tracker. It watches the clock so your managers don't have to, and only speaks up when a person needs help.

Escalate only when something's wrong

No one watches a dashboard. A missed check-in or discreet panic triggers your escalation plan on its own, the right people are notified with location, journey, and contact details.

Works wherever the job goes

One platform across home visits, remote travel, and field teams, with low-coverage and satellite-ready options built in.

Example Workflow

One after-hours visit, start to finish.

Here's how a single home visit runs, most of it invisible to managers, by design.

The 5 steps

  1. Before — start the visit. The worker opens the app, starts a visit timer for her call and notes the address and any risk flag.
  2. During — get on with the job. A quick check-in confirms she's fine. If the visit runs long, she extends the timer in a tap, no need to message anyone.
  3. If something's wrong — it escalates itself. A missed check-in or a discreet panic instantly triggers your escalation plan. No one had to be watching a dashboard.
  4. Response — the right person, the full picture. Your nominated responder gets the alert with the workers live location, journey and contact details, and follows your follow-up process.
  5. Check-out — logged automatically. The worker ends the visit; it's recorded as a clean audit trail for H&S, with no extra forms to fill in.

Common questions

The questions healthcare & community teams ask us

Does someone have to watch a dashboard all day?

No. That's the point. The system runs quietly in the background and only speaks up when something's wrong, alerting your nominated responder when a check-in is missed or a worker raises an alarm.

Is this just tracking my staff?

No. Location is session-based and controlled by the worker, it's shared while a visit is running, not monitored around the clock. When the activity ends, location visibility ends too, it's built for safety, not surveillance.

What happens when there's no mobile coverage?

Workers in patchy or remote areas can stay covered with SMS updates, satellite-to-mobile, and integrations with Zoleo, Garmin and SPOT. The app caches activity offline and prompts to reconnect.

Will staff actually use it?

It's built for engagement, a fast, discreet check-in rather than a clunky form. That's the difference between a policy on paper and a process people follow on every visit.

Can it fit our existing H&S policy and systems?

Yes. Check-in rules, risk assessments and escalation steps are configurable to your policy, with AD / SSO and reporting so it slots into how your organisation already operates.

Does it work after hours?

Yes, monitoring and escalation run automatically outside office hours, so late-night and on-call visits are covered without anyone needing to be at a desk.
