Statistics reveal that there are approximately two billion social media users around the world today. These figures are testament to the effectiveness of social media as mediums through which individuals interact with family, friends, and acquaintances. With social networks aimed at a large number of particular niches like fashion, business, and consumer welfare, the creation of a website dedicated solely to providing homecare does not come as a big surprise.

Moreover, CareTogether offers plenty of helpful tools. For one, a calendar feature allows users to keep track of vital dates, tasks, and medical appointments. This tool is in turn connected to a task list, allowing users to assign tasks to different care team members. CareTogether also integrates well with other sites and programs like Facebook, Outlook, Gmail, Google Calendars, and more, and may be accessed through a wide range of devices, including laptops, desktops, and smartphones.
