The Directory is a digital phonebook which saves clinicians significant time on the floor by bypassing switch and calling departments directly. This has the added benefit of reducing demand and load on switch teams for routine calls.

Directory features on a mobile

  • Call departments & services direct from your mobile

  • Search for specific names

  • Save important or regularly used phone numbers

  • Report out of date or incorrect numbers direct to admins

Setting up the directory on the dashboard

The numbers uploaded to the app should be relevant and useful, and used regularly. Admins should consult with clinicians to help identify most used numbers as not all are necessary to add and maintain.

Key numbers to begin uploading

  • Emergency and Met call numbers

  • Security

  • Key department numbers

  • Translator services

Our support team can also assist with bulk uploads of phone numbers if required, just get in touch using the live chat feature on this page or contact@med.app.
