For Home-visiting audiologists and hearing-aid dispensers

AI call handling for
Home-visiting audiologists and hearing-aid dispensers.

A home hearing enquiry may come from the person themselves, a relative or somebody helping them communicate. Ziverly can welcome the caller patiently and gather the broad appointment context while you are with another client, without attempting a hearing assessment or choosing equipment.

A familiar moment

The daughter calling because conversations have become difficult

You are carrying out a private home appointment when a daughter calls on behalf of her mother. Ziverly can capture who is enquiring, the person seeking support, stated authority and preferred contact, the broad reason for the enquiry, communication preferences, whether hearing aids or other equipment are already used, any existing audiologist, GP, ENT or care-setting involvement volunteered by the caller, home or care-setting location, access and appointment preferences. It does not perform clinical triage, test hearing, diagnose a condition, interpret results, recommend or adjust a device, assess capacity or consent, request unnecessary medical detail, quote, accept care or promise an appointment. Sudden or urgent health concerns need the appropriate clinical or emergency route rather than routine follow-up.

Where Ziverly can help

More room for the work.
A clearer thread afterwards.

The caller and client may be different people

Relationships, permission and communication preferences need careful wording without assumptions about authority.

A quiet appointment deserves your attention

Interrupting another person's assessment can compromise both privacy and the quality of your work.

Equipment questions can sound deceptively simple

Hearing, ear health, existing devices and personal needs must be assessed properly before recommendations are made.

What a better handover can change

Less interruption.
More useful context.

Communication preferences are visible early

See who should be contacted and how the person prefers to communicate before you return the enquiry.

Existing support stays connected

Keep caller-supplied device and professional involvement together without interpreting either clinically.

Your appointment preparation remains respectful

Add an approved equipment, access or communication question for that known household's next call.

Before, during and after the call

How Ziverly fits around
your working day.

☎Calls you choose≡Useful details→Your next step
  1. You decide which calls reach Ziverly.

    Use the call-diversion options supported by your mobile or landline service, such as no reply, unreachable, busy or rejected. Turn them off again whenever you want to answer normally, or use cover for evenings, weekends, holidays and unexpected time away.

  2. Your call details meet you where you are.

    Choose email or SMS alerts where enabled, then open Ziverly to review the summary, transcript, recording where available, status and priority.

    Review who is enquiring, communication preferences, existing equipment, professional involvement, location, access and preferred contact in the App or a configured alert.

  3. The next conversation starts further forwards.

    Add an AI-facing note when you want Ziverly to have more context if the same known caller rings again. Separate private notes stay private.

    Add an approved device, communication or access question so Ziverly can use your latest note if the same household calls again.

  4. Open calls do not have to rely on memory.

    Choose a daily or weekly email summary of calls still waiting for attention, at the time that best fits your working day.

  5. You can check in by phone, too.

    With Owner Voice Access enabled, call your own Ziverly number, verify your PIN and manage the calls you are allowed to see.

    After the current confidential appointment, verify your PIN to hear only the home hearing enquiries and statuses you are permitted to access.

You keep the judgement

Your expertise.
Your boundaries.

Hearing aid dispenser is an HCPC-protected title when dispensing hearing aids; medical referral and consumer-credit rules may also apply.

You remain responsible for the advice you give, the work you accept and the safety, eligibility and professional checks your business requires.

A few practical questions

Before you
get started.

Talk it through →
Can Ziverly assess somebody's hearing over the telephone?

No. It can collect introductory details, but hearing assessment and clinical interpretation belong within your professional appointment.

Will it recommend a hearing aid or confirm suitability?

No. Device choice, fitting, consent and suitability remain with the appropriately registered professional and client.

What happens if the caller describes a sudden health concern?

Your approved boundaries can direct urgent concerns to the appropriate clinical or emergency route rather than leaving them as a routine enquiry.
