And here’s the thing—it’s usually not about being picky or unprofessional. It’s about something deeper. Maybe it’s the location. Maybe it’s how they felt during a past visit. Or maybe it’s a safety concern they didn’t feel comfortable voicing the first time. Dr. Smith:Hey Joe, did you notice that one of the caregivers turned down the Smithfield case

When Schedulers Don’t Know the Geography — And Routes Make No Sense
Let’s walk through a situation you’ve probably seen before (or maybe lived through): A caregiver drives 45 minutes for a patient visit… only to find out they passed right by another patient’s house along the way. That’s what happens when schedules are made without considering the geography. It’s not just an inconvenience—it’s lost time, wasted fuel, caregiver burnout, and poor patient experience, all rolled into one avoidable mistake.
