Year of Scale Up
Shaping up the Care Model
Initial Hiccups
Idea of Carepur
Being present in 4 cities beyond Tricity; having a team of 1000+ Caregivers, raising first institutional funds, Launch of Aggregation platform for Doctor and Physio home visits remain key focus areas for us in 2016
Currently, we are managing upto 2500 home visits per month including Caregivers, Nurses, Doctors and Physios. We provide both on demand visits as well as monthly packages. We have units operational in Mohali & Panckhula from where we are serving complete Tricity, Ludhaina and other select cities of Punjab, Himachal and Haryana.
"Before you get ready for expansion, it is fundamental to know what can really be scaled up and what structure is required to scale up"
"Finding a right co-founder is equally challenging as finding a better-half. But once you have it, its half the battle won"
2015 has been year for us where we figured out how to hire caregivers in bulk, how to train them, how to retain them, what should be field protocols; what should be structure for multi city presence, channels of customer acquisition etc
Need for technology and having a partner to share the load brought Abhinav and Anil on board. Right from getting a customer on board, hiring a caregiver, training a caregiver, appointing caregiver to a client, managing their attendance and salary, tracking the field assessments- everything is tech enabled.
