The solution: designed for demand, built for speed
Replace fixed capacity with flexible call handling
City View moved beyond a four-phone model to a modern hosted telephony service that enables up to 13 staff to log in and handle calls. Teams can now respond quickly to demand, cover absences more easily and direct resources to the busiest lines in real time.
Modernise call flows around patient needs
Seven dedicated call routes now connect patients with the right service, including appointments, prescriptions, vaccinations, home visits and test results. Smarter routing has helped balance demand, reduce unnecessary queueing and create faster, fairer access for around 15,000 patients.
Build a voice service that keeps improving
Live dashboards, detailed call analytics and accessible call recordings give the practice greater control over performance, staffing and service quality. Managers can continuously refine call flows, strengthen governance and use real evidence to support recruitment, training and complaint resolution.

“ We were able to generate a business case based on the call data and get approval to employ part-time staff to cover the biggest spike in calls during the day. We now have the flexibility to allocate staff to where the demand is. ”
