Overview
The KARE Report Center is a powerful tool that provides detailed insights into shift activity, staffing data and compliance documentation efficiently. These reports help teams prepare for internal audits, invoicing, and CMS submissions—all without waiting for custom reports from support.
Note:The Report Center is currently available only on the web app for local community users. Access for enterprise or company-level users will be included in future updates. In the meantime, they may request specific reports from local community users or their KARE Account Manager.
