Initial Challenge:
During the height of the pandemic, the institution needed a quick and secure solution that consisted of a desktop app and a mobile option for nurses and their support staff of 2,000 team members. They also required a practical yet robust solution that would allow them to communicate with patients efficiently, in conjunction with the highly anticipated vaccine.
“The automated links via the SMS feature have been so successful in managing the inbound call volume that we’ve expanded the functionality and are looking into more options with SmartChoice.”– Director of Telecommunications
The Smart Solution:
As the healthcare company transitioned its workforce to work remotely, SmartChoice not only provided what they needed but enabled their team to be securely managed from a distance.
Paired with SmartChoice’s software analytics platform, our softphone application empowered their employees to make calls from anywhere.
By incorporating SmartChoice’s SMS via IVR feature, callers had the option to press a specific key and be redirected to receiving an SMS with a link that contained the vaccine information instead of waiting for hours to speak to an agent.
In contrast, their executive team was able to see real-time information on daily productivity and continue to serve their clients with excellent service.
