In an era where technology intertwines with healthcare, the importance of maintaining patient confidentiality is paramount. That's why we are thrilled to announce a groundbreaking feature in HospiceWorks - our new, built-in Speech-to-Text capability!
Floating Microphone: Your New Documentation Companion
Our innovative Floating Microphone feature, positioned at the bottom right of all documentation screens, is designed for simplicity and efficiency. To activate, just click on it, and watch it glow green to indicate it's listening. For added convenience, it auto-deactivates after 10 seconds of silence.
