AFTER-HOURS & WEEKEND PHONE TRIAGE

Is your hospice on-call phone getting harder to manage?

Fireside Medical answers your hospice’s after-hours and weekend calls with experienced triage nurses, so your team can rest and your patients and families always reach a caring voice.

Ask yourself…

If any of these sound familiar, your after-hours phone coverage may be costing more than you think.

YOUR NURSES

  • Is your staff exhausted from carrying the on-call phone?

  • Are late-night and weekend calls driving burnout?

  • Are nurses starting their next day of visits after a night of interrupted sleep?

YOUR LEADERSHIP

  • Do call-offs leave you scrambling to cover the phone?

  • Are you building on-call schedules instead of growing the organization?

  • Is it getting harder to find nurses willing to take after-hours calls?

YOUR PATIENTS & FAMILIES

  • Are you concerned about after-hours response times, call documentation, or regulatory compliance?

  • Have you worried that one missed or delayed call could affect patient satisfaction?

You’re not alone.

These are some of the most common challenges in hospice today, and you don’t have to solve them on your own.
