Use Case · Voice & Chat

The evening call that never reaches anyone.

Families ring when they finish work. Hospitals ring when a bed is needed. Neither waits until Monday.

The problem

Nobody is on the desk at 8pm.

The office closes at five. The discharge coordinator, the anxious son, the weekend enquiry: they all land on a machine, and by Monday the decision has been made somewhere else.

How HealthCentre handles it

It answers, triages, and puts it on the morning handover.

The agent picks up at any hour, takes the name and number, works out whether it is an enquiry, a discharge or a family matter, and books the right person to call back. Anything clinical goes straight to your clinical lead, flagged for handover.

HealthCentre.Ai × Caller

HealthCentre.AiGood evening, Willowbrook House. You're through to the enquiry line, how can I help?

CallerOh, I didn't think anyone would pick up at this hour. I've been ringing round all weekend.

HealthCentre.AiYou've got me, we answer around the clock. What can I do for you?

CallerIt's my mum. She's in hospital, and they're talking about discharging her on Thursday, but she can't go back to her flat. She needs proper nursing care now.

HealthCentre.AiThat's a short turnaround, so let's get it moving tonight. Can I take your name and a number I can reach you on?

CallerMichael Brennan, 07700 900 462.

HealthCentre.AiThank you Michael. And your mum's name, and which hospital she's on a ward at?

CallerEileen Brennan. She's on Ward 12 at the Royal, they've had her in since the stroke.

HealthCentre.AiGot it. I won't speculate about her care needs, the nurses here will want to do a proper assessment with the ward. Let me check we have a nursing bed in the window you need. One moment while I look at the availability.

HealthCentre.AiThank you for holding, Michael. We do have a nursing bed available from Wednesday, so the timing works. What I'd like to do is get our clinical lead to ring the ward tomorrow morning and arrange the pre-admission assessment. Is 9am alright for her to call you first?

CallerHonestly, that would be a weight off. Yes, 9am is fine.

HealthCentre.AiThen that's booked. Our clinical lead, Ruth, will ring you at 9, and she'll speak to Ward 12 directly. I've flagged this to the manager as a hospital discharge so it's on the morning handover.
