Hospice Tools

Pros: What I like most about Hospice tools is that it is a very friendly EMR system to use. I like how you can use different audit reports.

Cons: What I like least about Hospice Tools is I wish it had an option to look up a patient by his/her birthday.

Pros: Ease of use, user-friendly that enhances patient care and efficient documentation. Easy to locate patient information. Also the ability to work with time keeping programs.

Cons: Would like capability to screen shot the last six full sets of vitals for faster access during visit.

Pros: User friendy and all the data in one place. Intergrated process information that is needed to see, shared and in-put information.

Cons: Not much, however, the updates creates a lag, but overall it's still user friendly. Many time you have to open up additional windows to gather and see other information regarding patient information.

Pros: I'm a before and after user, meaning I gathered information for my job before hospice tools and currently use them to get the same information and more. I love working with this program. It's easy, uncomplicated and accurate. No matter where my search leads me, different states, sites, specific accounts, Hospice Tools gets me there.

Cons: It meets my needs in an uncomplicated, accurate way. Before Hospice Tools, I was an expert in digging for and gathering sales information on my own. I knew what I needed and went on a treasure hunt to find it. Hospice Tools has anticipated my searches and provided the information. What more could I ask for?

Pros: The unity hospice eDocs application very easy to manage and document about the patient’s concerns and thoughts. It is very straightforward and you can fix your mistakes.

Cons: In my view cons are the application easily forgot you credentials and frequently asks you to change your password or require from you to log in again.

Pros: I as a part time volunteer for Unity Hospice for the WI office, I am new to Hospice Tools, and I am still learning all the new features of Hospice Tools and what is good of it. I use Hospice Tools to record my time that I am volunteering at the Unity Hospice at the WI office. I find it very valuable.

Cons: There is nothing that I can think of that I find Hospice Tools that is not good. I am using it for volunteer.

Pros: It is easy to access over the phone and computer. I like that Edocs automatically transfer to timekeeper

Cons: The nurses are not able to view previously entered reports trend like weight and Vital signs on Edocs without having to open a new comprehensive visit note

Pros: very user friendly and easy to use and navigate. Hopefully in the future it will be even better to use

Cons: It can be slow at times and saving documents can be an issue. when adding notes I wish it was easy for everyone to see in one place.

Pros: Easy to navigate and easy to learn for new clinicians and surveyors who choose to work within the system instead of having us print out chart copies and give to them.

Cons: It would make things easier for the team if the program could be filled in offline and uploaded later when connecting to the internet is a problem out in the field.

Pros: The Hospice Tools software is very intuitive, which is very helpful for people who are less savvy with technology. It is easy to create documentation, and also easy to run reports with the Hospice Tools software.

Cons: One downside to Hospice Tools is that each document I print results in an additional sheet of paper being printed that is unnecessary as it only contains a footer, no data. This results in me using twice the amount of paper every time I need to print documents.

Pros: I love being able to open several tools at a time. Being able to visits on your calendar while in a patient's chart is so helpful.

Cons: When you place a treatment order under the wound table, you have to go out of your current document and go to another document to place the order for it to show up so you can complete your wound document.

Pros: I find the application easy to navigate. Any issues that I may have encountered, were readily explained.

Cons: Some of the questions that are expected and required for us to address are not starred as are others.

Pros: Well thought out, easy to use, comprehensive information, the app responses exactly like the website on a laptop

Cons: buggy, especially trying to update the calendar, or make changes to rejected documents - often says that we need to either close or refresh the window, and work i have done was not saved. Ai hasn’t helped me yet

Pros: It is easy to use and gives specific instructions and tell you when you get it wrong. I don't have to search hard for information on a patient.

Cons: There is no way to view your password after you enter it. It would be helpful if we could see it before we send it.

Pros: I like that it is hospice centered, easy to use and reminds you of what is necessary to enter for complete documentation.

Cons: That with the filter in the edoc notes the contents are not listed in alphabetical order. I have no other issues with Hospice Tools.

Pros: Hospice Tools pros consist of its ease of use and efficiency. Hospice Tools has easy navigation due to platform design, and quick page loading times.

Cons: From my experience, the page timeouts and occasional random crashes are the most frustrating aspects of Hospice Tools.

Pros: UI is very intuitive, easy to navigate, organizes docs and it’s easy to access documents that aren’t finished.

Cons: Difficulty with encounter types and rigid authorization requirements for modification of care episodes e.g. palliative vs new hospice chart

Pros: I've used 4 different EMRs in my many Hospice jobs, and Hospice tools is by far the most user friendly, the easiest to navigate, the most intelligently built for the job I'm doing, and the least likely to force me to do double work or allow me to submit something incorrectly that requires later fixes. It's simple and intuitive, has almost every functionality that I could need, and probably saves me about 20 hours of work a month that I can now spend on more important things.

Cons: The volunteer platform could use some minor improvements but for the most part is great. This is the only EMR with integrated volunteer user interface that I've encountered, and it's easy for volunteers of all ages and tech-abilities to utilize.

Pros: Easy to navigate. I like that most of the charting is checking off boxes. It is concise and to the point.

Cons: For the edema section i wish there was an option to chart non pitting edema. Maybe that can be changed

Pros: Hospice Tools is generally easy to use and has quick drop down menus and free form fields to add more info.

Cons: It would be good to have “last entered data” next to the fields to remind what was filled in for the last visit note. There are some typos in the forms but nothing that obstructs the use of the program.

Pros: I like the accessibility to our Patients information. I have nothing else to add to the Pro section.

Cons: Need a section for forms so they can be assessed when in the field and more bandwidth for my chrome book

Pros: All patient information is accessible and easy to access in real time. Can access what other coworkers are doing. That way before going into a visit I am knowledgeable about any change that might’ve taken place between visits

Cons: Some things in Hospice tools in Edocs are redundant. It would be nice if our care plans could self populate after visits. So, we didn’t have to go in and redo everything every visit.
