Relay

Goal: "Let caregivers and families reach each other during shifts, without sharing personal numbers." Set up the Relay line, and give clients and caregivers a guide to using it.

How it fits together

  • Caregivers and client families text or call your agency's relay number and name the person they want to reach.
  • During a shift they share, CareQB connects them. Texts open a relay channel until the shift ends, and calls are connected and recorded.
  • Outside a shared shift, CareQB holds the message as a scheduled relay and sends it just before their next shift together.
  • Your office can see everything, and CareQB asks your team for help when it can't tell who someone wants to reach.
