Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about our software, the clock-in app, training, and the apps and websites we build.

The company

What does Exhale Staffing do?

Exhale Staffing is a Liverpool software company. It runs four products for care, staffing and training providers: Exhale HR, Exhale Time & Attendance, Exhale Care Solution and KCP Training Centre. It also builds custom web apps, mobile apps and websites, provides care staffing and recruitment, and hires out a training room in Liverpool.

Can I buy one product on its own?

Yes. Each product is sold on its own and works on its own. Used together they share one record of the person, so nothing is typed twice. See how they connect.

How much does Exhale software cost?

Pricing depends on the products you use and the size of your team, so there is no public price list. Book a demo and you get a quote for your organisation.

How do I book a demo?

Use the contact page or call 0151 208 2612. A demo takes about twenty minutes.

Exhale HR

What is Exhale HR?

Exhale HR keeps one record for every person you employ: onboarding by a link the new starter fills in, documents, DBS and right-to-work dates with expiry alerts, training, rotas, overtime and TOIL, and timesheets priced at each person’s rate. Payroll, KPI scorecards and appraisals are coming soon. More about Exhale HR.

Clocking in and time & attendance

Can care staff clock in on their own phone?

Yes. With Exhale Time & Attendance staff clock in and out on their own phone. A GPS geofence confirms they were on site, a QR code option covers shared sites, and there is no hardware to buy. Read the full guide.

What happens if a carer has no phone signal?

The app records the clock in offline and uploads it when the phone is back in signal, so the time and place of the visit are kept. More on clocking in with no signal.

Does the app track staff all day?

No. The location is read at clock in and clock out, and during a mileage journey if the carer starts one. It is not continuous tracking, and staff can see what is recorded.

Is it an alternative to electronic call monitoring?

Yes. Phone-based clocking with a geofence proves who attended, where and when without a landline call or a tag in the client’s home, and the same record feeds pay and the care notes. Electronic call monitoring and the alternative.

Is there an app for iPhone and Android?

Yes. The staff app runs on Android and iPhone. App store listings are on the way; until then we set your staff up directly.

Training

What training do you offer?

KCP Training Centre delivers accredited health and social care qualifications, CPD courses and Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training Tier 1 and Tier 2 online, with certificates filed on the staff record. We also hire out a practical training room in Liverpool.

Custom apps and websites

Do you build custom software, apps and websites?

Yes. We build web apps and iPhone and Android apps, websites and back-office systems for UK businesses, and we host and support them from Liverpool.
