What it is

The night on a ward, read back to the morning shift in two minutes. WardBrief reads what the night left in the record from eight the evening before — admissions, early-warning (NEWS2) scores, round notes and lab results — and puts it in the order a charge nurse would: up to three things to watch (the worst score with the vitals behind it, the new admission, the critical result, the discharge still waiting for its summary), every bed marked worse, the same, better, new or empty, and the night as a timeline. Every item names the record it came from. Rain writes only the one-line greeting, from bed numbers and counts — no names reach the model — and the rest is the record’s own. The brief can be played aloud, each person ticks off the watch items, and “read by Lakshmi at 07:34” is kept, so the next shift knows who started from it.

Who uses it: Built for: Every specialty
Reads: The ward’s beds and admissions, early-warning scores and round notes overnight, lab results that came back abnormal overnight, open discharges
Writes: The day’s brief for the ward, who read it and which items they ticked off
Never: It never puts a claim about a patient in the model’s words — the facts are chosen and written from the record by code — and it never changes a chart, an order or a score.
Access: Only people whose role includes it — the clinic owner decides who
Your data: Full PHI. Hosted in Boston, United States. On uninstall: Briefs stop. Past briefs and their read receipts are kept.

How it works

The night is gathered for youFrom eight last night: admissions, early-warning scores, round notes and abnormal results on the ward’s patients.
Read or listen before the shiftThree things to watch first, then every bed’s direction and the night as a timeline — or tap play and hear it.
Tick it off and startMark each item seen and the brief read; the record keeps who read it and when.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It never puts a claim about a patient in the model’s words — the facts are chosen and written from the record by code — and it never changes a chart, an order or a score.

Questions clinics ask

What does WardBrief do?

Rain’s morning brief for each ward: what to watch, every bed’s night, read aloud. The night on a ward, read back to the morning shift in two minutes. WardBrief reads what the night left in the record from eight the evening before — admissions, early-warning (NEWS2) scores, round notes and lab results — and puts it in the order a charge nurse would: up to three things to watch (the worst score with the vitals behind it, the new admission, the critical result, the discharge still waiting for its summary), every bed marked worse, the same, better, new or empty, and the night as a timeline. Every item names the record it came from. Rain writes only the one-line greeting, from bed numbers and counts — no names reach the model — and the rest is the record’s own. The brief can be played aloud, each person ticks off the watch items, and “read by Lakshmi at 07:34” is kept, so the next shift knows who started from it.

What data does WardBrief read and write?

WardBrief reads the ward’s beds and admissions, early-warning scores and round notes overnight, lab results that came back abnormal overnight, open discharges and writes the day’s brief for the ward, who read it and which items they ticked off. Its data class is Full PHI. Every app works on the same patient record — nothing is copied into a silo.

What does WardBrief deliberately not do?

It never puts a claim about a patient in the model’s words — the facts are chosen and written from the record by code — and it never changes a chart, an order or a score.

What happens to our data if we uninstall WardBrief?

Briefs stop. Past briefs and their read receipts are kept.
