They\u2019re struggling right now. But even in these unprecedented moments, I am hopeful as I witness people truly pulling together and supporting one another through this time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let me share an uplifting story about a community in Canada that\u2019s helping its most vulnerable residents weather this storm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the small town of Halton Hills, just outside Toronto, a group of citizens has set up a phone hotline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s special about this hotline, you ask? It connects at-risk residents\u2014mostly seniors who are self-quarantining\u2014with locals who want to help by bringing them groceries, medicine, and other essentials.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These Halton Hills volunteers didn\u2019t have funding to get their community hotline up and running. So, they took advantage of RingCentral\u2019s offer: <\/span><strong>three months of free phone service for organizations providing essential services <\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">during this pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s an amazing story, and it\u2019s a reminder of how we\u2019re all going to beat this thing. By working together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small organizations are among the most significantly affected by a major crisis like COVID-19, and we want to be able to support them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are just a few ways to use RingCentral to keep your small business running, and your team and community healthy during these difficult times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 20px;\"><strong>3 ways to use RingCentral\u2014right now\u2014to help your business and community through the COVID-19 challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"color: #606060; padding-top: 15px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Free cloud phone service for essential providers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As I mentioned earlier with the Halton Hills Community Hotline, RingCentral is offering <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/lp\/covid19-offer.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">three months of free cloud-phone service<\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to providers of essential community services. That includes healthcare organizations, nonprofits of all types, and K-12 schools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your organization is delivering these types of services to your community, hit that link to start using RingCentral for free\u2014we\u2019re here to help.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"color: #606060; padding-top: 15px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Telemedicine solutions for patient care<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0You\u2019ve been hearing the terms telemedicine and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/small-business\/blog\/video-conferencing-telehealth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">telehealth<\/a> in the news a lot lately\u2014and we\u2019ve actually been enabling this service for the medical community for many years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Essentially, telemedicine involves patients communicating through phone or video conferencing with their physicians and medical staff (instead of visiting doctors\u2019 offices or hospitals in person).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can understand why this is an essential way to provide care and protect the community during this viral pandemic.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But effective telemedicine requires more than doctors simply asking patients to call their office line for a consultation. For example, to maintain patient security and regulatory compliance, an effective telemedicine solution requires call recording and archiving as well electronic security measures to protect the confidentiality of the calls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are the types of phone and video solutions RingCentral has been successfully delivering for years\u2014and is providing for the medical community right now during the coronavirus pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"color: #606060; padding-top: 15px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Work-from-home solutions for businesses<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, RingCentral has been a huge proponent of the distributed and remote work movements for many years, allowing employees that are scattered around the world to connect in real time by phone, team chat, and video conference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the years, we\u2019ve helped thousands of small business customers keep their operations running and their team\u2019s morale up through a range of events\u2014both good and bad.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, fuel distributor Vertrax is headquartered in New Haven, Connecticut\u2014a region that\u2019s hit often by snowstorms. Because they\u2019re using RingCentral, Vertrax can allow its employees to work from home when a storm or other bad weather makes driving into the office difficult or dangerous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Vetrax\u2019s system administrator Rob Ljunggren says, \u201cOur support staff can log into their RingCentral call queue and take calls right from their computer.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 20px;\"><strong>Let RingCentral help your small business<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are troubling and scary times. But we\u2019re here to help you and your team stay connected and safe through this pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From taking advantage of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/lp\/covid19-offer.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">our free offer for essential providers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, to letting us guide you through setting up your telehealth system, to finding new ways to keep your operations up and running\u2026 we can help.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get in touch with us today to chat about<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> how RingCentral can help your small business weather the coronavirus storm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past several weeks, I\u2019ve spent some time talking to small businesses in my community and across the country.
