A Nurse Brain Sheet You Can Print, That Erases Itself When Your Shift Ends

Brain Sheet puts your shift on one page: up to six patients, a 24-hour grid for medications, labs and tasks, and four SBAR handover boxes for each. Type short notes, print the page, and tap End shift when you are done. Everything you typed is erased from the device.

The problem

Many nurses make their own brain sheet before every shift, either from a template they printed or by copying a grid by hand. It works, but it takes time to set up each time, and typing patient notes into a personal cloud notes app is a privacy risk that most workplaces do not allow. Brain Sheet gives you the page without the risk: nothing is sent anywhere, there is no account, and the sheet is gone when the shift is over.

How Brain Sheet (Nurse Shift Sheet) works

• Open Brain Sheet, read the short note about what it is and is not, and tap I understand.
• Tap Add patient and type a room number and initials. Add up to six patients, with diagnosis, allergies and code status if you want them.
• Tap an hour in the 24-hour grid to mark it as medication, lab, task or done. Press and hold an hour to add a note of up to 20 characters.
• Tap Print for a one-page A4 or Letter sheet. When your shift is over, tap End shift to erase everything you typed.

What you get

• One page, up to six patientsEach patient gets a row for room, initials, diagnosis, allergies and code status, a 24-hour grid, and four SBAR boxes. The page is built to fit on one A4 or Letter sheet in landscape.
• Print blank, fill by handPrint the empty sheet in two taps and write on it with a pen. It prints in black and white, with room to write.
• End shift erases itOne confirmation clears every patient and note from this browser. Your settings stay: language, paper size and Pro code. A sheet left open for more than 16 hours is erased the next time you open the app.
• Works offline, in 15 languagesAfter the first visit, Brain Sheet opens without a connection. The labels, the examples in the boxes and the printed sheet follow the language you choose.
• Pro, for $1 oncePro adds the ICU and ER templates, a saved shift encrypted with a passcode on this device (kept until you end the shift, or until you open the app after 16 hours have passed), and printed labels in a second language.

Private by design

What you type is kept only in this browser tab, in session storage, and is never sent to us or anyone else. There is no account and no server. Closing the tab clears it, but some browsers can bring a recently closed tab back with its contents, so a sheet older than 16 hours is erased when you next open the app. Brain Sheet goes online only if you type a Pro code, and then only the code is checked. We suggest writing initials and room numbers only, and following your workplace's patient privacy rules is up to you. A printed page or a PDF you save from the print dialog is outside the app.
