The old school method of sticking the charts to the foot of the patient’s bed has the same pleasant properties that using sticky notes on a board for tasks does.

Anyone that’s struggled with JIRA and just said forget this due to tool impedance will have a good idea of how painful this is. In hospitals I almost never see charts pulled up except on daily rounds. Sure nurses are great and smart people and usually remember everything, but they also work hard long hours and the cost of mistakes can be very high.
