Texas — February 5,2026

Reliant at Home announced today the deployment of Apricot, an AI-powered documentation platform that reduces the time clinicians spend on documentation while maintaining accuracy and quality.

Apricot’s platform is designed specifically for home health clinicians, helping reduce administrative burden, improve documentation consistency, and guide completion of complex requirements such as OASIS assessments. By streamlining workflows and improving accuracy from the outset, Apricot enables clinicians to spend more time with patients and less time on after-hours documentation.

“Apricot’s documentation solution aligns with Reliant at Home’s commitment to high-quality care and continuous improvement,” said Matt McMurphy, CEO of Reliant at Home. “Apricot reduces administrative burden, increases documentation consistency, and supports better clinical and operational outcomes. This partnership helps ensure that Reliant at Home clinicians have the tools they need to serve our patients with excellence. Apricot will save our clinicians significant time on their documentation, too. It’s a true win/win.”

Reliant at Home selected Apricot to support its clinicians while maintaining the organization’s strong focus on patient relationships and care quality. By leveraging AI-powered guidance and automation, Apricot helps reduce clinician burnout without compromising clinical integrity or compliance.

Choosing Apricot was an easy decision because it directly supports our mission to support our teams and enhances our ability to provide the care patients need and deserve.

“Our goal in embracing Apricot’s AI-powered solution is to focus on what is most important: meaningful patient relationships and truly impactful care,” said Jana Lightfoot, COO of Reliant at Home. “We prioritize patients above all, and innovation is necessary to reduce clinician burnout and back-office fatigue without ever compromising quality. Choosing Apricot was an easy decision because it directly supports our mission to support our teams and enhances our ability to provide the care patients need and deserve.”

Clinical leaders at Reliant at Home also emphasized the value of structured, intuitive documentation support—particularly for nurses navigating complex start-of-care visits and assessments.

“Our nurses are exceptional caregivers, and they deserve tools that make their jobs easier—not harder,” said Susan Easaw, RN, VP of Clinical Services at Reliant at Home. “Apricot’s platform reduces documentation burden and provides guided structure for completing complex OASIS assessments with fewer needed corrections. This not only improves the clinician experience but also strengthens the quality of the care plans we create for our patients.”

By improving accuracy at the point of care, Apricot also helps clinicians avoid time-consuming revisions and after-hours “homework,” supporting healthier work-life balance across care teams.

Apricot is a game-changer, and kudos to Reliant at Home for making this commitment.

“By reducing documentation time and improving accuracy from the outset, Apricot gives our clinicians more time to deliver excellent patient care, without the burden of ‘homework’ after hours,” said Ross Pagenkopf, RN, Regional Director of Clinical Services at Reliant at Home. “Having been in the field earlier in my career, I remember all too well how daunting start-of-care charting could be—often spilling into evenings and weekends. Apricot is a game-changer, and kudos to Reliant at Home for making this commitment.”

 “At Apricot, we believe the future of home healthcare operations is about doing more with less—without burning out the people delivering care. We help agencies unlock measurable ROI by reducing documentation time, improving accuracy, and increasing capacity, while creating an experience nurses actually enjoy using. When operators win financially and nurses feel supported in the field, patient care improves as a natural outcome.” said Trent Smith, CEO of Apricot.

The partnership underscores a shared vision between Reliant at Home and Apricot: empowering clinicians with intelligent tools that elevate care quality, improve operational efficiency, and ultimately enhance patient outcomes.
