FAQs

Your questions, answered.

Can't find what you need? Read every answer on the FAQ page.

  • Do I have to sign in during a crisis?

    No, if you set up your phone beforehand. Turn on one-tap crisis once while signed in. After that, holding the button on the CareKin home page alerts your family without signing in or waiting for a code.

  • How are caregivers checked?

    Every caregiver's NIN is verified, they give two guarantors, and they go through a background check before CareKin approves them. Nurses must also have a verified licence.

  • How does payment work?

    You pay into escrow when a caregiver accepts your booking. The money is held by a licensed escrow partner and released to the caregiver only after the care is done.

  • Who can see my health information?

    Only you, and the people and hospitals you choose to share it with. Your health passport is encrypted, every share has an end date, and you can stop sharing at any time.
