NICU Nurse Brain Sheet Template

Neonatal care is measured in grams and hours. Doses are weight based to a decimal, feeds run on a clock, and corrected gestational age changes what normal even means. This layout puts weight in grams and CGA in the patient header, swaps the systems row for respiratory support and feeds, and adds a feeds and growth box.

Make it yours

Nothing here is fixed. Open it in the editor and you can rename any label, drag boxes to resize or reorder them, change what a box holds (ruled lines, a checklist, write-in fields, a table, or a med times table), add sections from a library, and switch between 1 and 6 patients per page. Print to PDF or straight to paper, portrait or landscape.

Questions

Is this NICU brain sheet free?

Yes. It is free during beta, there is no account or signup, and nothing you type leaves your browser.

Can I change the number of patients?

Yes. This example shows 2 per page, and you can set anywhere from 1 to 6. The layout re-flows so the boxes stay writable at every count.

Can I print it?

Yes. Print this page directly and you get the sheet on its own, or open it in the editor first to change it. It is sized for standard US letter paper.

What is a nursing brain sheet?

A brain sheet, also called a nurse report sheet, is the page a nurse fills in during handoff and carries all shift to track each patient's diagnosis, meds, labs, lines and tasks.

Is this a brain sheet or a report sheet?

Both names describe the same page. Nurses say brain sheet, report sheet, and cheat sheet interchangeably, so a NICU nurse report sheet, a neonatal nursing brain sheet, and a NICU report sheet template are all this: one sheet you fill in at handoff and carry through the shift.
