Duty of Care

Duty of Care

Safeguarding the welfare of employees is of paramount importance to responsible employers, particularly those employees working in isolation, that may be at risk. Boomerang's solution for lone working can be easily adopted and helps to mitigate those risks by allowing alerting the supervisory staff of potential issues. If a lone worker has failed to respond to an automated message, alerts can be quickly escalated across individuals or teams, and via multiple communication channels, to ensure that immediate action is taken when every second counts.

Because of the nature of our end-users, their communications skills and platforms are variable; we therefore, need to have a number of channels open to claimants. SMS is proving to be our most effective method of communication.

Boomerang gave the opportunity to rapidly evaluate participants’ responses to messages and respond quickly to messages that failed to provide value to participants. The latter aspect is of particular importance for actively engaging patients with their healthcare enterprise.
