### "The most user friendly software on the market. "

September 16, 2022

5.0

Cherish as a company was thrilled with our experience. As well our CHAP surveyor told us that she has never seen such a user friendly software.

Pros

Onboarding of new staff members. The tech team is extremely helpful with any customizations needed.

Cons

I think the greatest challenge is that they don't have many integrations with other services. I know they are working with multiple venders and are constantly adding more integrations.

Reason for choosing Hospice Tools

I really felt like I would have a partner that would help us grow even after we sighed the agreement. Thankfully that has proven to be the case.

### "Good System"

February 20, 2024

4.0

Pros

Compared to our last EMR, Hospicetools is extremely easy to navigate, has endless features and is able to be customized as we need it to be.

Cons

The need to update care plans that do not have any updates is frustrating.

Review Source

Response from Hospice Tools

February 21, 2024

Hi Kailynda, Thanks for the great review! The requirement to update care plans is a CMS compliance issue. If there's no new info it can be updated with a continuation of the current interventions - but it's important to show that the care plan has been addressed and is being followed even if nothing has changed. We're glad to hear that Hospice Tools is working well for you and your team!

### "Hospice Tools"

June 19, 2021

5.0

I like it — it’s intuitive and allows you to focus in where you need to, and skim over what isn’t relevant.

Pros

I like the built in reference guides you can look at when you click the blue “i” buttons. The scale or tool being used will be explained, or past entries for the value you’re entering will be pulled up. I can see instantly what my patients weight or arm circumference measurements have been historically, and see trends at-a-glance. I also like that the software won’t let you close a note if a required is blank. It tells you exactly which field, on which page must be completed!

Cons

I wish the historical data feature was available on more fields, like falls, infections, or dates of Foley catheter insertions. I don’t think the Patient Goals section is very intuitive to use. We’ve had a lot of confusion with goals. I’d like to see units of measurement stated on the wound assessment document somewhere. Right now there’s no mention of whether we’re using inches or centimeters, and it won’t accept alphabetical characters in the measurements fields, so you can’t type it in yourself.

Review Source

Response from Hospice Tools

September 16, 2022

Thanks for the great review Erin! We appreciate it it. Those are fantastic suggestions. Our docs are customizable. You can work on any doc change requests to your admin who can submit to your client success rep to add i buttons to specific fields and implement your other suggestions. Thx!

Pros

Easy to use. I don't need to log in again once I log in

Cons

Redundancy, multiple options but it does not include what I'm looking for

Thanks for taking the time to review Hospice Tools. Our documentation is extremely customizable so if there is something your looking for that isn't part of our template documentation for charting, please provide a sample to your admin/DCS. If approved internally they can forward to our support or success teams and we can add that document or customize existing documentation accordingly. Hope this helps. Thx!

### "Very user friendly software "

September 16, 2022

5.0

Very good experience, great customer support!

Pros

Hard to miss any important information or make any mistakes while using rhis.

Cons

The pricing feature - per user price is something which I don’t like much personally.

Reason for choosing Hospice Tools

Ease of use, easy to pick the diagnosis, easy care to place care plans, hard to miss any important items

Response from Hospice Tools

September 20, 2022

Hi Rajesh, Thanks for the awesome review! We've experimented with other pricing models but found the per user model is competitive and allows you to add patients without increasing costs - but we are always open to suggestions. I'm glad to hear that other than that, Hospice Tools is working for you and your team. Thx!

### "HIGHLY Recommend!"

May 25, 2021

5.0

is super easy to use and has made my workflow extremely efficient and organized. It allows everyone within the company to collaborate with ease. I can look up patient information and see notes from staff members in their respective field with the click of a button on my phone. All while feeling secure knowing the platform complies with HIPPA's security and privacy regulations. Additionally keeping track of my timecard and PTO is a breeze. I'm sure HR lovesthe timekeeper function as well because it keeps things well organized by having dropdown menus to select the category for the type of work I did and notes section if I want to write further details. Lastly, I LOVE that I do not have to maually track my mileage when traveling. I simply can enter the to and from destination either by address or even facility name and the app will calculate the mileage for me!

Pros

\- Super Easy to use - Streamlines Organization - Allows collaboration between Employees with ease - Helps me maintain my PTO and hours worked - Calculates mileage for me

Cons

I have not had any issues whatsoever. My experience has been great!

### "Great Hospice Software "

September 27, 2022

5.0

Overall, it has been a positive experience that has not required hours and days of training. The program allows us to spend more time with the patient instead of trying to figure out where to document.

Pros

Easiness to use. I have worked at other hospice programs and the documentation software they use is very complex and takes weeks to figure out how to use the program, This takes time away from the patient and our own personal time.

Cons

Some of the social assessment questions are redundant and do not always flow.

### "Clinical Social Worker"

May 19, 2021

5.0

is easy to use and very efficiant. When updates are made, it is well communicated to us and they are available to sit down and actually explain the changes if need be. It allows space for narratives and the questions posed are very specific to the need and discipline. If for some reason my computer shuts down for whatever reason, it will automatically save my work.

Pros

I have used many softwares over the course of my 25 year career, but has been the most efficient, user friendly and easy to access system I have ever used.

Cons

There are some specific questions I would like to add to the assessments. I would also like to see autocorrect as part of . Several times I have contacted the administration of this software with my suggestions and each time I felt heard and valued. They have even made some changes per users requests.

### "Fairly easy to learn, which is good because we received no training"

September 23, 2022

4.0

My tasks are suited to ' abilities. I appreciate being able to modify and print my reports before exporting them.

Pros

I love my reports. They are customizable and easy to use.

Cons

In Notes you can see who wrote the note, when it was written, and if it was edited by someone. That would be a helpful ability on ALL of the Tabs.

Review Source

Response from Hospice Tools

October 6, 2022

Hi Susan, Thanks for the review! The reports are an excellent feature! Training is available and you and your team can set any disciplines training session anytime at no additional charge simply by clicking on your client success rep's meeting link. Aside from seeing who wrote and edited notes, you can track census related changes in the census log in intake and you can see who submitted or edited any doc in the chart. We don't show it next to each tab to prevent clutter and for most users it's not so relevant. I'm glad your experience with our support team and our updates has been so much better than your previous EMR experience and I'd recommend you take advantage of our training sessions. Thx!

February 23, 2024

4.0

Sometimes after uploading into the chart or (on the intake tab) the page refreshes and doesn’t save the info entered, leaving me to enter it all again. Otherwise is good.

Pros

Easy to navigate and understand. Easy to find information.

Cons

Needs more patient identifiers on the search page. For instance, two patients with same names would also need DOB to determine between the two (when searching for patients).

### "From a Long Time HospiceTools User"

May 18, 2021

5.0

Pros

Having been a user since its initial rollout, I appreciate how responsive the development team has been to user suggestions and growing needs. Many new features have been added, such as the ability to view the care team and their current visit frequencies from the eDocs Team tab, without having to open each IDG Update. As a Medical Records user, I like having the ability to upload a document from cloud storage, as well as my computer. Because HospiceTools is web-based with Apple/Android app support, it makes it easy to look up information quickly, as well as enter updates to eDocs and TimeKeeper.

Cons

The only frustrations I have experienced are related to product development, such as document uploading failing because of a programming glitch. These types of issues have typically been resolved quickly by Support.

### "Not tech savvy but hospice tools is made for me "

May 19, 2021

5.0

Time, time, time!! This system saves me a lot of time. I am old school , i have been a nurse for 23 years so i have always used paper and pen. The closest i had ever come to using anything techy was IV pumps and CBG machines. With that said this system is quite user friendly even for a person like myself .

Pros

I appreciate the flow of information once i log in. Everything i need to do makes absolute sense to me. When looking for information i am typically with a family or a patient and love that things are labeled for what they are. Information is not under some obscure tab, which allows me to find the information i am be looking for quickly and with ease. I am extremely comfortable with this operating system despite not having a great understanding of anything related to computers. Thank you kindly

Cons

I am unable to give any negative feedback about this system as it performs exactly the way and what i use it for everyday . Thank you kindly

Overall, is easy and convenient to use.

Pros

My most favorite feature about this software is how easy it is to use and does not require extensive training as it is "straight forward".

Cons

I feel that a feature allowing us NPs to copy problems/diagnoses table from previous chart with one click would be a fantastic addition allowing us to chart faster.

### "User Review of Hospice Tools"

May 18, 2021

5.0

Overall experience is positive. Easy to use on computer and phone.

Pros

I began using HospiceTools 6 months ago when I started a new job. It's user-friendly, intuitive, and not complicated. The design is clear, patient's charts are easy to navigate. I like the Sticky Notes section so that team members can leave notes for each other that isn't part of the official medical chart. I like that /eDocs/Time Keeper allows me to easy calculate my mileage to/from patient visits. It's helpful that I can click on a patient's address and it automatically opens the Maps app in my phone and I can be off in a jiffy!

Cons

I have had trouble uploading pictures to a patient's chart (e.g. a photo of a patient's advanced directive) and usually have to sent to medical records team for them to upload it themselves. It would be helpful if accepting multiple formats for upload.

### "Look no further, hospicetools software is the best"

May 27, 2021

5.0

Easy to use overall. Best part is being able to look up all the same information on the go through the app as well as one the computer. One of the best features is the ability to search a phone number in when I've missed a phone call from a patient or family member.

Pros

Working in the hospice industry for over 10 years my experience has taught me to focus on patient and family needs. allows for a user friendly experience where i can quickly meet the needs of my clients. Having the option to work on hospice tools just as easily as on the app is what I enjoy the most.

Cons

Only con that comes to my mind, is sometime I forget my password. Otherwise, that's it.
