What the phone looks like for a London home care agency
London and the wider Greater London has a population of around 9.7 million, built on professional services, hospitality and an enormous base of independent trades serving them. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a home care agency working across the City, Camden and Croydon most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
A hospital discharge needs care arranged in days, so the agency that answers gets a package worth thousands a year.
Callwise answers on your own 020 number. Customers ring the number they already have, it is answered on the first ring by something that sounds like a person, and the job is booked into your diary before the caller has thought about trying anybody else.

London home care agencies ask us
Do we keep our 020 number?
Yes. Your existing 020 number stays exactly as it is and keeps ringing your phones. Calls only reach the assistant when nobody picks up, or at the hours you choose, so nothing about how London customers reach you changes.
Do you work with home care agencies outside London?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so London and everywhere across Greater London is covered the same way, along with the rest of the UK. The local part is your number and your customers, and both stay yours.
Are our enquiries really out of hours?
Most of them. Families discuss care in the evening and after a weekend hospital visit, which is exactly when coordinators are off.
Can it handle safeguarding concerns?
Anything on your safeguarding list stops the call flow and reaches your on call manager immediately.
Will it take care worker applications?
Yes, and recruitment calls are worth catching too, because carers apply to whoever answers first.

Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a London customer would ask. It is the same assistant your callers would get, so if it does not convince you on the phone it will not convince them either.
