About this app

Replace your report sheet. Run your entire shift.

Nurses already rely on brain sheets to stay organized. NurseBrain Synapse takes that same workflow and turns it into something you can actually use throughout your shift.

Instead of juggling paper, memory, and the EHR, everything stays connected in one place.

What you can do with NurseBrain Synapse

Brain sheets that match how you think
Create customizable brain sheets that reflect your unit and your workflow. Use them digitally during your shift or export clean PDFs when you want paper.

Stay on top of your shift in real time
Keep track of everything without relying on memory: Patients, Tasks, Notes, Handoffs. See what needs attention now, what's done, and what's coming up next.

Give report with confidence
Each patient has a clear, organized view with SBAR, notes, and updates. Everything is already structured so you're not scrambling during handoff.

Capture information as you go
Use voice or quick entry to document updates during your shift. No need to remember everything later.

Turn your shift into usable notes
The information you already captured can be turned into progress notes and care plans you can reuse in the EHR.

Works the way nurses actually work
You're constantly switching between patients, report sheets, and the EHR. NurseBrain Synapse is designed to fit into that reality — use it at the workstation, on your phone during rounds, or on your watch for quick updates.

Built for real nursing shifts
Bedside nurses, Travel nurses, Charge and resource nurses, Nursing students.

Secure and nurse-built
NurseBrain Synapse is HIPAA-compliant and designed with patient privacy in mind. Built by nurses, based on real workflows — not theory.

Free to start
NurseBrain Synapse is free to use, with optional paid features available.

Replace your report sheet and bring structure, clarity, and confidence back to your shift.

Overall Good, A solid Good. But...not great. I am of a certain age, male and a nurse. I'm sort of hybridizing this app as its way more than my team needs. The links, the layout, even the "what to include" hints on the cards ? Best I've seen. Moving around is not. Its not intuitive. There doesn't seem to be that spot on every page where old people like me can go back and see contents and how to get there. Maybe it is there, but i can't find it.! Otherwise great app guys!

Thank you for providing your valuable feedback Kris. It's actually quite easy to move around in NurseBrain - just use the bottom navigation menu located at the bottom of every screen! If you still need help, reach out to us so we can schedule a 1 on 1 video session where we can help you navigate and make the best of NurseBrain :)

The idea is great, the cost is prohibitively high. This is a massive improvement over paper, on the right track, but no hospital would permit its use (patient privacy issues) and convincing an entire unit let alone multiple to subscribe and use this would be impossible, thus rendering it main feature useless. The next best thing for this concept would be something that integrates with the hospital system.

Thanks for the feedback Chad. NurseBrain is a secure and superior alternative to paper. We prioritize patient privacy, don't collect PHI, and offer bank-level cloud encryption. We’re widely used by nurses in hospitals, making unit adoption possible. We integrate with hospital systems and are more than happy to assist you in setting it up.

Would love the capability to assign the same task to multiple patients as well as keeping tasks 📌 pined for use after deleting my pt. list. It may be redundant for a seasoned nurse, but for a new grad in orientation it'd be great to ensure nothing was looked over.

Hi Maya! So just like you requested, you can now assign the same task to multiple patients (by tapping the "duplicate" button) & when you delete your patient list, tasks that were not completed will still remain on your todo list. If you're satisfied with the updates, please consider giving us 5 stars & telling your nurse friends about us :)
