New Phone System

To help clients transition to our new phone system, we are happy to provide a social narrative.

Calling AuSM

The phone system at AuSM has changed. The main phone number is still 651-647-1083, but staff extensions and the caller experience may be different.

When I call the main number, a receptionist may answer. They can help connect me with a specific person I am trying to reach, or the person who can best assist me.

If I call the main number and no one answers, I will hear a list of options to direct my call. These options include a staff directory as well as specific departments. If I know the name or extension of the person I am trying to reach, I can also use this to direct my call.

A list of phone extensions is available on the AuSM website if I do not have the new extension for a staff member.

If I have questions staff can help me, I can also share feedback to help make the phone system as user friendly as possible.
