ABSTRACT Background Identification of appropriate patients for hospital‐in‐the‐home (HITH) remains a significant challenge. We hypothesise that a human‐centred design (HCD) approach can assist in developing a computerised clinical decision support system (CDSS) to address this issue via leveraging data within the electronic medical record (EMR).
