A health-tech startup based in North Carolina's Triangle region has expanded to Charlotte, utilizing college students here to help fulfill its mission of disrupting the caregiver space.
CareYaya, founded early 2022, aims to improve health equity for the aging population and make life less of a burden for caregivers. The tech-enabled care registry works like Uber — upon request, an elderly person is matched with a college student who has been vetted to provide affordable caregiving services.
