The Problem

GROUP HOMES
STRUGGLE WITH FAMILY INQUIRIES

Families call at all hours searching for care. Missed calls mean lost placements, and your small team can't handle the constant interruptions while providing quality resident care.

Families Call When You're Caring for Residents

A desperate family finds your home at 9 PM while researching care options. They call and reach voicemail. By morning, they've already scheduled visits with three other facilities that answered immediately.

The Cost
$8,500/month
Lost per empty bed

Your Staff Can't Be in Two Places at Once

While you're helping a resident with medication, two families call about placement. A guardian needs a tour scheduled, a case worker has questions about services—you're pulled away from care constantly. Families get frustrated and choose more responsive homes.

The Cost
30+ calls/day
Per group home manager

Families No-Show for Visits and Never Return

You prepare the home for a family visit, brief your staff, and wait. They don't show. One follow-up call goes to voicemail. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just an empty bed and lost revenue.

The Cost
35% no-show
