This process will occur when a caregiver calls the office line after hours because they are unable to clock in or out. A caregiver calling in for assistance clocking in/out would press option 3-1. If a caregiver is calling because they are running late or calling in to their shift they would select option 3-2 and be directed to a live person who would then transfer the call to the individual on-call to handle. Missed clock-ins should continue to be handled by on-call staff in the same way we would during office hours; in real time with calls to client and caregiver to confirm their attendance or identify a no call no show as soon as possible. The change will assist to filter out calls that may be less urgent allowing us to more effectively provide quality service to clients and caregivers.
