Hospice inpatient unit nurses cannot efficiently chart wound care, track treatment history, or manage medication and orders in Home Care Home Base, forcing consideration of paper charts.

HCHB lacks intuitive wound care tracking, treatment history view, a streamlined eMAR, and order entry workflow for inpatient hospice settings, requiring multiple approvals for simple order changes.
