Requests are anonymised: no names, contact details or health information are stored or shown. A suburb is named only when it has at least three requests in the window; otherwise the region is shown. Who is asking and the timing are inferred from the request by Carevo's classifier, and timing is described in the past tense once a request is more than 30 days old. Regenerated from Carevo's database at each deployment. How we calculate these numbers.

|---|---|
| Saturday | $40 to $48 an hour |
| Sunday | $53 to $63 an hour |

an hour · SCHADS Award minimum, Level 2–3 full-time (Fair Work pay guide)
$73.58
