Received a call from patient on a Friday morning about an upcoming appointment the following Monday morning with their specialist. The patient attempted to call the provider office for the exact address as they were unfamiliar with the area, but couldn’t reach anyone. The patient then called me for assistance. They lived out of county and were unsure about directions or where exactly they were going. I was able to provide very detailed directions and had them repeat back to me as well as walked through how to enter the address into their phone GPS. They expressed gratitude for being able to reach someone and receive directions. The patient attended the appointment at the scheduled date and time.
