I'm trying to get in touch with the administrator of admissions for a local county nursing home. Should I wait until next week?

I usually like to call 1st thing in the morning, this way my Voice Mail doesn’t get buried in the voice Mailbox from the weekend callers.

Another option is to call again, indicate that you're awaiting a response, and ask if there's an assistant or someone else who can address your issues, after briefly explaining them.

I would call the reception desk. See if the Administer has been in since your call. She/he could be on vacation or out sick. Also could oversee other facilities. If told he/she is in today, ask to be switched to her/his number. If u go to VM, just say you are following up on a call you made on ?. Could he/she please get back to you at their convenience.
