A mobile job, desk-bound admin
Home care nurses spend most of their day in the car and at patients' homes. The phone rings between two visits, at the wheel or in the middle of changing a dressing. Requests from new patients, messages from prescribing doctors and questions from families pile up.
In the evening, the admin is waiting: tracking prescriptions, organising rounds, invoicing documents. I help you lighten both loads, by taking calls during your rounds and handling the administrative follow-up of your activity.
The constraints of home care
Calls you cannot take
At the wheel or in the middle of care, every missed call could be a new patient.
Rounds to reorganise
Hospital admissions, discharges, new patients: the schedule changes every day.
Demanding invoicing
Precise rules and documents that must be kept rigorously up to date.
Keeping prescribers in the loop
Doctors, hospitals, families: many people to keep informed.

Reachable without picking up
During your rounds, your line is forwarded to my answering service. Every call is taken, noted and prioritised: new care request, schedule change, message from a doctor or a family. You receive a clear message that you can deal with once you have stopped, in complete safety.
For nursing practices bringing together several self-employed nurses, I can centralise requests and make it easier to share patients between colleagues.
