Open Shift
Coverage
Google Workspace Your phone system AxisCare

A call-out at 6am. Every qualified caregiver is phoned at once, up to the limit you set, and the first to accept
takes the shift, instead of your scheduler dialing down a list by hand.

Open Shift Coverage workflow
Coverage Without the Phone Tree

Roughly one percent of all scheduled shifts end up a no-call no-show, and each incident carries about an eighteen percent chance of losing that client outright. The cost is not really the unfilled hour, it is the family deciding you are unreliable. Most agencies handle a call-out the same way: someone opens the roster and starts dialing, one caregiver at a time, while the clock runs. Your scheduling software can broadcast an open shift to an app and hope somebody opens it. That solves the notification, not the problem. This agent calls the qualified pool simultaneously, explains the shift, takes the first acceptance, and writes it back to your scheduler.

An honest note: outbound shift filling is the most contested corner of this market and there are funded vendors doing it. You can buy it on its own. Setup includes checking your caregiver list and phone numbers are current before any calls go out.

What We Do?

Qualification rules come first. Which caregivers can cover which clients, who is already at overtime, who the family has asked not to send again, how far is too far to drive. The agent only calls people who could actually take the shift, which is what keeps caregivers answering rather than tuning you out.

The reason we use phone calls rather than app notifications is unglamorous: a large share of this workforce is older, driving, or mid-shift, and does not check an app within the ten minutes that matter. A ringing phone gets answered. Consent for these calls is captured in caregiver onboarding, not assumed.

How We
Build It

Scope and Connect

We agree what the agent says, what it must never say, and what counts as a good outcome. Then we connect to the system it reads from and map the fields, because nothing can be built until we can see your data.

WEEK ONE
01 /03

Build, Then Test With You

We build the script and the call logic by hand, then you listen to test calls and sign off. We tune whatever you want changed and test again. This stage ends when you are happy, not on a date.

WEEK TWO
02 /03

Go Live and Tune

It starts taking real calls, every one recorded. Thirty days of script tuning is included from go live, and we keep fixing on request after that.

Questions
The first acceptance wins and the rest are told the shift is covered on the same call. Nobody drives to a shift that is already filled.
Your scheduler can push an open shift to an app and wait. This places a phone call and has a conversation. For a workforce that does not all check apps instantly, that difference is the whole product.
It escalates to whoever is on call, with a summary of who was contacted and what they said, so the human picks up with context instead of starting from zero.
Yes. On its own it is $1,000 a month with a $1,500 setup, and setup includes checking your caregiver list before any calls go out.
