A Fantastic EMR for Staff AND Volunteers

I manage our volunteers, and the fact that they can document directly into the patient charts has been transformative for this team. In previous volunteer management roles, the volunteers have felt like outsiders and the staff have seldom been aware of what they do. Their notes were uploaded from paper or PDFs in batches at the end of the month, and only for compliance reasons as no one ever bothered to check them outside the volunteer team. With HospiceTools, because the entire team can (and does) read the volunteer notes in edocs as they are listed with all other visit notes, staff often change their visits and care based on volunteer comments, share with me and volunteers ways that they could improve their visits, and generally treat volunteers as part of the team rather than random mystery visitors whose actions are unknown. It energizes the volunteer team, but more importantly - since volunteers enter a visit without an agenda - they often discover things from patients/family members that they haven't shared with staff, and often these insights can directly and immediately improve the care we offer our clients because they are entered into the chart same-day. I love using HospiceTools - it makes my job easier, my volunteers' jobs easier, and it gives me more time to DO my job by making the charting portion of it efficient and simple.

Functionality

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.

Reasons for switching to Hospice Tools

New job, but if this job wasn't using hospice tools I would have asked them to now that I know how wonderful it is. Epic is great, but is much too complicated for Hospice, and has too many opportunities to do things incorrectly. It isn't built for hospice and it is obvious as a user that it's not and that we're trying to adapt it to a functionality that it wasn't built for. Homecare Homebase is perhaps the worst platform I've used ever, and I have zero good things to say about it.

Vendor Response

Vera, this made our day! Thank you for such thoughtful feedback. We're so proud that Hospice Tools is helping you and your volunteer team feel connected, efficient, and truly integrated into patient care. Your insights about volunteer engagement and chart visibility are exactly what we hoped to enable when designing this platform. We appreciate you—and your volunteers—so much! — The Hospice Tools Team

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?

Vendor Response

Hi Jaye, Your review made our day — thank you! 😊 We absolutely love hearing how Hospice Tools supports your work both before and after implementation. The way you described your “treasure hunt” days versus now really captures the heart of what we’re trying to solve. We’re so glad the system is helping you navigate multi-state data, accounts, and sales info with ease. That kind of clarity and efficiency is exactly what we aim to deliver — and it’s awesome to hear it’s working for you. Thanks for being such a thoughtful user and champion of what we do! — The Hospice Tools Team

Functionality

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.

Vendor Response

We’re so glad Hospice Tools helps you stay informed and connected in real-time. Luv hearing that the transparency helps fill in any knowledge gaps between visits. Grateful for the meaningful work you do every day. Thank you, Richard! — The Hospice Tools Team

It's easier than falling off a log!

I have used hospice tools since its inception and found it to be easy to use. That's important for me. I don't have to search hard for any document to see, the tabs are all there for all disciplines and I am able to look at notes from others if necessary.

Hospice charting refined!

Pros:

The ease of documentation. One stop to access needed patient information, medical records, medications, etcetera, as well as document patient visits/interactions. Hospice Tools is incredibly user friendly, coming from someone who is not super tech savvy!

Cons:

I really don't have cons to report about Hospice Tools. I will be reaching out to tech support though to inquire about a more refined death report; one that would refine the report to only RUSH referred patients, for my bi-weekly metrics reporting.

Vendor Response

We’re thrilled that Hospice Tools is incredibly user friendly and helps make hospice documentation more manageable—even for those who aren’t “tech people.” Always here to support you! Thank you, Andrea! — The Hospice Tools Team

Pros:

I’m able to use it on my work phone pretty easily. Finding my unfinished notes is also convenient and easy to access. Once on a pt profile, the tabs make finding where I need to be easily accessible without having to hunt down the docs/notes I need.

Cons:

The lag time can make it difficult to work. Also, I typically have to input a calendar event multiple times in order for it to save

Reasons for switching to Hospice Tools

Changed employer. SmartCare was the only option at last job

Vendor Response

Thanks for your thoughtful feedback, Molly! We're glad you find the system easy to navigate on the go. Regarding the lag and calendar saving issues - have you updated your app to the latest version? Please go to your App or Play store and make sure you're running the latest version.

Hospice Tools for charting - straight forward & easy to use

Overall, it’s a fairly easy system to use. Some tweaks would make it better in my opinion. It is a pretty ubiquitous system and I think doing focus groups to add/modify features woudl benefit all hospices across the country.

Ease of use

Functionality

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.

Vendor Response

We’re glad you find Hospice Tools easy to use and that it's working well for you. For last data and pulling that data into your current form, click the i-button next to the field and you will see that data there. For changes, our documentation is customizable. We also take feature requests. Please submit any requests to your admin and if approved on your end, your admin can submit to us to implement. Thanks, Pamela! — The Hospice Tools Team

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.
