The hub that ran itself once the right people were in it
Most of Amedisys's care team works from the road, not an office, and disconnection was rising because of it. Carpool was brought in to turn a digital platform into something rarer: a daily habit that stuck.
Peer-to-peer connection went from 33 percent to 72 percent in a year.
Carpool led with culture, not tech. The platform came second. First came a secure hub piloted with mobile teams in mind, built on trust rather than a mandate, carried forward by internal champions rather than a top-down announcement.
Managing it meant embedding support into the workflows caregivers already had, not adding a new one. Within a year, daily virtual huddles were normal for more than 9,000 caregivers, a habit that had to be built one team at a time.
As one Amedisys leader put it:
"Carpool has helped us understand how our IT investment can facilitate our transformation to a modern workplace, actively engaging our business units and field clinicians to understand where our efforts have a direct impact on patient care."
Amedisys didn't just see more logins. Caregivers rediscovered purpose in work that, for most of them, still happens entirely alone in the field. The connection is what changed.
