I am a nurse in ICU. I can’t tell you how often, after the doctor has just given what is often tragic news to the family, that the family discusses who they should call. Then the first question they ask me is where should they have them stay.
We have Ronald McDonald house for the immediate family, but for extended family and friends, I carry a crumpled piece of paper in my pocket with the phone numbers of some local hotels. Imagine my delight to hear that we now have a tool right on our various hospital websites that we can share with the families.
Add the dynamic version of our smart trip widget to your site to make things easier for clients trying to find a hotel near your hospital and clinic facilities
When there is an accident or pending surgery or a birth, planning a trip quickly becomes a priority. For the first time, you can make it easier for those trying to come to support the patient by easily answering the question: “Where should I stay?” With TripProximity, your site becomes a 24-hour concierge that provides an integrated answer: “at a hotel nearby.”
The Benefits
Make life easier for the family
When someone is in the hospital, if friends and family come to visit, there is often nowhere for them to stay but in a hotel. By integrating the TripProximity widget into your website, you can share the page location those coming to visit. You make life easier for the family during a difficult time and your team saves time answering “where should I stay?”
Make your map smarter
The TripProximity widget can replace your existing map tool or static driving directions. Those coming for a visit can book hotel, flight or get dynamic driving directions to your location. Those coming to visit can focus on their loved one, versus thinking about logistics. The widget pre-populates your location automatically.
Make Giving Back Easy
With TripProximity, every trip can make a difference.
25% of the proceeds from travel bookings made on your site are given to your Foundation quarterly.
See the story below to get some ideas on how to deploy the Click Travel Give program with TravelingToGive.
We can give you new ways to get donations for the Foundation
Site placement is easy.
The TripProximity widget conforms to the HTML container added to your site. Choosing a location near customers’ decision points creates greater value for you.
We strongly recommend creating a new VISIT US button at the top of each navigation column on each location page and creating a unique URL for each location that can be put on a magnet or business card and put in patient rooms, waiting areas, nursing stations, emergency, social services and at the hospital entrance. For example: http://www.jacksonhealth.org/forkids.asp/visitus
Good things are in store.
It just takes minutes to configure and install your widget on your site or blog. Contact Terri to discuss the impact TripProximity can add.
