Practice After Hours Telephone Message
We recently conducted an audit of each practice’s after-hours messages on answering machines. We noted that some practices had essential information missing. In order for your patients to get the information they require if they call when the practice is closed, we recommend using this script located on the Auckland PHO website > Resource Library (password: aucklandpho) > Forms, HR and Support > After Hours Telephone Script
Have a great week everyone – 16 days to the Easter Break!
