Reassure early. Engage throughout
Support patients from day one and reduce anxiety-driven contact
Keep patients informed and confident from referral to appointment. By communicating early and consistently, you reduce avoidable queries, increase attendance, and improve experience across care pathways.

Make contact early
Send welcome messages, referral confirmations, and first-touch updates to reassure patients and reduce inbound calls from the start.
Keep communication flowing
Provide timely, automated updates and check-ins throughout the waiting period. Reassured patients are more likely to wait well and turn up.
Omnichannel delivery
Deliver updates by SMS/RCS, email, portal, NHS App or even letter based on patient preferences without adding manual steps for staff.
Better communication leads to fewer missed appointments
Clear, timely updates from referral to arrival help patients feel supported, reduce confusion, and build confidence to attend. The result? Fewer DNAs, fewer avoidable calls, and smoother clinic operations.
Inform Every Step
