Hi @thebear424,

Welcome to our community. It’s great to see your ideas listed out in an organized and positive way.

As Robert said, the community is starting to focus on inpatient features as of recently. However, we can use “more hands”. While everything you listed should be the goal (outside of the freeware app, I think there are other options there), we are taking it piece by piece to meet the bigger needs of our inpatient users.

For example, @andremillet is interested in using OpenEMR at his hospital so we have picked 3 targetted inpatient features to implement to meet his needs. You can read more about this here: [Units Support](https://community.open-emr.org/t/inpatient-features/8723)

Please consider contributing to this very important project. I’m not sure what your background is in software development, but there are other roles that need to be filled, so to speak.

Thanks,

Matthew Vita
