What Sets Night Nurse Apart
- Patient access to Night Nurse is through the physician's answering service, with the call information being relayed directly by fax, unlike triages where patients/caregivers are left holding on line until nurses complete prior calls.
- Calls are answered in order of priority. Emergent or urgent calls are never left waiting on line for less urgent calls to be completed.
- Our triage staffing is based on call volume demand, projected each month by our subscribers and computer assisted projection of trending call volume.
- Safety margins are included when preparing nurse staffing schedules and as added back-up, we maintain on-call nurses, assuring the capacity to provide continued service, if and when surges of call volume occur. Although pandemic events such as H1N1, can periodically delay call response times…Night Nurse subscribers have never experienced interrupted service due to call volume or weather related issues. Your good measure of Night Nurse reliability is our unsurpassed record of continuing service since 1999.
