This Month...
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This year’s theme, “Every Story is Unique, Every Journey Matters,” reminds us that behind every diagnosis is a person with their own story, courage, and path forward. Together, we honor the survivors, support those currently in the fight, remember those we’ve lost, and work toward a future with better prevention, treatment, and hope. Share your story, support a loved one, and help raise awareness—because every journey truly matters.

Other notable holidays:
October 10th: World Mental Health Day
October 11th: World Hospice and Palliative Care Day
October 12th-18th: Case Management Week

"Understanding Disability Today"
Respectful Language, Real Numbers, and Better Practices
Disability affects millions — but how we talk about it, understand it, and treat those living with it can make all the difference. Whether you’re a caregiver, healthcare provider, family member, or someone simply trying to be a better ally, it’s important to stay current on the facts and be mindful of the language and behaviors that shape the experiences of people with disabilities.

What's New?
CareAvailability Dashboard Updates for Providers: Quick Edit/Update All Coming Soon!
We’re excited to share that improvements have been made for providers to update their availability more quickly and easily. Providers with multiple locations can now “Update All Availability to Today” for all listings with ONE click. The goal is to save time, and for families to view more up-to-date availability.

Additionally, we have added Analytics for providers to view and pull stats for their listings to help track engagement and performance. Some of the analytics are only tracked for premium accounts, such as: clicks on social media, website, and mobile calls (we only started tracking these in August). These enhancements are part of our ongoing commitment to make CareAvailability more efficient and user-friendly for everyone.

For Families using our site, we hope that these time saving updates will encourage more providers to update more frequently. If you find a provider on our site and they have not updated their availability, please encourage them to do so. Updated listings make the site a better resource for all of us.

Contact support@careavailability.com if you have any questions about optimizing your listing.
