Replace your report sheet and run your entire shift with customizable brain sheets, real-time task tracking, voice capture, and confident handoffs.
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.

Replace your report sheet and bring structure, clarity, and confidence back to your shift.
This app works amazing and is great to use for the ICU. The only thing I ask is if you can add a small feature. “The Return button”. That would be a useful feature if you are in a certain box and won’t to start on a new line to Kinda create different task or under the medication to write all the meds. Ex:Lasix Lopressor PepcidEtc. I would also be able to time my meds. Ex: 8am ColaceIron9amVitamin CMultivitamin Etc. Thanks for reading. Just a small request for a feature that I feel would make the app more usable. Great app though.

Thank you for the positive review! We’re glad to know that you enjoy using NurseBrain.The small feature that you requested is already available! When you are adding a new task in the “New Task” screen, simply tap the button that reads “Add Another Task” and you will have the ability to add as many tasks as you want from the same screen.In order to time your meds as you mentioned, for each medication you would simply choose the time that it is due and then save. On your “Todo List” screen, your meds will be organized according to the time that they are due.Another way to save time, using the example you provided for the 8 AM meds, would be to create a medication task to give Colace at 8 AM. And then from the “Todo Screen,” tap the Colace task, and select “duplicate” in order to create an identical task which you can then change to iron. This is super helpful because if you have multiple medications due at the same time for the same patient, all the information you duplicate will be copied over and the only thing you would have to change is just the name of the medication rather than entering all of the details individually for each medication.If this answers your request, please consider giving us five star rating & letting others know about us! If you have any other questions or suggestions please send us a message through our website at https://nursebrain.com/connect.
No, JUST NO, too expensive to not function properly
MandyD2023
At first this app was really great and promising, I logged in, it started glitching, wouldn’t load, I updated the app, and still no change. Every time i hit the deactivate button, it switches off. I’m not able to edit the active patient list. It also would not save my patient so i hit save multiple times, it duplicated it every time and i didn’t notice until i logged out and logged back in. I also accessed on the desktop, still no luck with functioning. Not a way to start a shift, I am so disappointed, I’m glad tried it with the monthly fee instead of paying for it flat out. I don’t see myself as keeping this one. So much potential but they have not worked out all of these issues.It’s been a week, issues are still unresolved. I understand technology is perfect, but the EXPENSIVE cost of this app when it’s not functional is robbery! Way too many bugs. This should be free until you have a system that works. I’ve been trying to make it work longer than I was able to use it!

Best Nursing App Out There
HXGSBR
As a new nurse I found myself struggling with time management and patient handoffs. And then a friend recommended me NurseBrain and I’ve been using it since and now I just feel I’m on top of my shifts, I feel way more organized, I don’t freak out as much or get overwhelmed due to the amount of work. I can’t recommend it enough!
Worth every penny!

This app was suggested to me by my preceptor. As a new nurse, I usually dread handoffs but this app has made it so easy to organize the tidbits of info I jot down during my shift and present them confidently during report! The report sheets are very detailed and have enough room to add my own little notes. Kudos to the makers of this app.
