Hospice

Hospice phones and on-call routing

Night calls reach the nurse on call, every time, as the rota changes.

Built around the rota

The on-call schedule runs the phones.

On-call routing follows your schedule for nights, weekends and holidays, so a family reaches the nurse on call without a switchboard in the middle. When the rota changes, the routing changes with it.

  • On-call schedules

    Time-based routing for nights, weekends and holidays.

  • Rings the nurse anywhere

    The EmpireUC app rings on-call staff on their mobiles with the agency number.

  • Referral tracking

    Separate numbers show which hospitals and physicians send referrals.

  • Call recording

    Recorded calls you can play back when you need them.

Intake and referrals

Every referral reaches intake.

An intake line

Referral sources dial a direct line that rings the intake team, then rolls to the person on call.

Referral faxes to email

Referral packets arrive as PDFs, with a text to intake when one lands.

One system for every branch

Every office on EmpireUC, managed in one portal.

Questions

What operators ask us.

Can on-call nurses use their own mobiles?

Yes. The EmpireUC app rings their mobiles and shows the agency number when they call families back.

Can routing follow our on-call rota?

Yes. Schedules route nights, weekends and holidays to the right person, and we can update them when the rota changes.

What if the on-call nurse does not answer?

The call rolls to a backup, a supervisor or the answering service, in the order you choose.

Do you work with multi-branch agencies?

Yes. Every branch goes on one system and one portal, with its own numbers and schedules.

Never miss a night call.
