Healthcare audio

Every call answered like you would answer it.

Professional greetings, a call tree that sends families, hospitals and staff to the right person, and on-hold messages that work while callers wait. Recorded free for Empire customers.

What we make

Four pieces, one sound.

Written for your building, recorded in a professional voice, and loaded on your phone system for you.

Greetings

Main, after-hours, holiday and voicemail greetings in your facility’s name, in English or Spanish.

Call trees

A menu that sends admissions calls, family calls and hospital referrals to the right person, day and night.

On-hold messages

Tell callers about rehab, visiting hours and open positions while they wait.

Hold music

Calm, licensed tracks instead of silence or beeps.

A call tree that works

How a call moves through a facility.

Most missed admissions happen because a hospital caseworker reached a voicemail. A good call tree gives every caller one short path to a person, and changes at night.
