VoiceFriend enables skilled nursing communities to reach the right people with the right information at the right time.
Every day, you spend hours trying to find staff to fill open shifts or coverage for staff call-outs—while also trying to keep your staff informed of important alerts and due dates. It’s costly, time-consuming and frustrating.
With VoiceFriend, you can easily alert staff members about open shifts and other critical information. Each staff member gets personalized messages via their communications preference (phone, text or email)—and even in their preferred language.
For urgent issues, messages can be sent to individual staff members, selected staff groups (e.g., per diem, part-time or full-time) or the entire staff.

VoiceFriend in action at Life Care Centers of America
Life Care Center's Attleboro community had the typical challenges that all skilled nursing communities face. Overtime expenses were higher than they liked, and the cumbersome process of finding coverage for staff call-outs was taking up hours every day.
So Life Care turned to VoiceFriend to help them improve performance. They implemented the VoiceFriend Notification Solution and its easy-to-use messaging system.
The results? Their efforts to find coverage for staff call-outs were reduced from hours to minutes—greatly reducing frustration levels. Better yet, overtime expenses were also reduced. After successfully utilizing the system for open shifts, the team expanded the use of VoiceFriend to include in-service training reminders, facility events and activities and positive announcements.
"Automating routine communications to staff has transformed our community. Costs have been reduced and our staff are more productive."
Patrick O'Connor, Executive Director, Life Care Center of Attleboro
