Support for dependent people
AI and automation with human control.
Where should automation for support for dependent people start?
Start with a specific workflow: schedules and companion service contacts. AI can help organise information and prepare tasks; a person should review exceptions and approve business decisions.
Organise schedules, instructions and contacts to prepare home services. Use only necessary information and escalate sensitive changes to the responsible person before altering a care plan.
| Area | Proposal to assess |
|---|---|
| Initial workflow | Schedules and companion service contacts |
| Human review | Validate the care plan, privacy, access, safety and any sensitive changes. |
| What to measure | Unconfirmed shifts, incomplete instructions and service coordination time. |
| Condition for proceeding | Check permissions, data quality and pilot outcomes before expanding the workflow. |
An initial workflow to assess
Schedules and companion service contacts
For a business such as support for dependent people, start with this bounded workflow. Gather incoming requests and the steps you repeat before deciding which parts are suitable for automation.
Collect
Create a record for “schedules and companion service contacts” with required information, request status and the person responsible for review.
Prepare
Connect the record to your tools. Prepare a draft or task, check for missing information and retain a history of changes.
Review and close
Validate the care plan, privacy, access, safety and any sensitive changes. Record approval and the outcome before marking the workflow complete.
What to prepare before connecting tools
- Real request examples, removing personal data that is not necessary.
- A list of tools, fields and statuses you currently use.
- Approved information for the workflow: schedules and companion service contacts.
- A person responsible for approving exceptions and a procedure for returning to manual work.
What should remain under your control
Validate the care plan, privacy, access, safety and any sensitive changes.
Set minimum permissions, review drafts before sending and stop the workflow when information is incomplete or no answer has been confirmed.
How to assess whether it adds value
Unconfirmed shifts, incomplete instructions and service coordination time.
Record these measures during a week of manual work and compare them with a pilot of the same scope. Include reviews and corrections in total time: fewer steps are not enough if error correction creates more work.

Can every part of support for dependent people be automated?
We do not assume so. This guide proposes assessing specific administrative tasks. Service delivery, physical work and professional decisions may require people and specific obligations.
Which tools do I need?
It depends on your existing tools and their integration permissions. Start with your calendar, documents or management system and validate which information can be read and written. We do not assume an integration works before checking it.
