Cribside turns your spoken assessments into structured NICU documentation in seconds. Built for the bedside. Designed around the way NICU nurses actually work.
Free plan available · No hospital IT approval needed
NICU nurses deserve better than this.
You spend 12 hours caring for the most fragile patients in the hospital. Then you stay an extra 45 minutes typing notes. Your documentation is just as clinical and important as your care — it shouldn't take this long.
Everything a NICU nurse needs to chart fast
Built around the NICU workflow — not adapted from a generic nursing app.
Voice-to-Chart
Speak your assessment and Cribside generates a structured clinical note in seconds. No typing during a critical moment.
5 NICU Note Types
Patient Assessment, Reassessment, Hourly Vitals, Medication Administration, and SBAR Handoff — all formatted for standard clinical documentation.
Dose Calculator
18 NICU medications with weight-based dosing. High-alert meds like morphine, fentanyl, and vancomycin require dual verification before copying.
PHI-Safe Design
No patient names, MRNs, or dates of birth ever stored. Use DOL, gestational age, and weight only — compliant with personal device use.
Installable on Your Phone
Add to your iPhone or Android home screen. Works like a native app — no App Store required. Use it at the bedside, offline if needed.
EHR-Agnostic
Copy your finished note and paste it into Epic, Cerner, Meditech, or any other EHR. Cribside works alongside your existing workflow.
5 NICU-specific note types
Every note type follows standard clinical nursing structure — ready to paste into any EHR.
Patient Assessment
Full head-to-toe with vitals, respiratory status, IV access, feeding, and plan.
Reassessment After Intervention
Documents patient response to interventions with timestamp and clinical change.
Hourly Vital Signs
Quick structured vitals entry with trend notation and alert flags.
Medication Administration
Dose, route, time, indication, and response — with dual-verify for high-alert meds.
SBAR Handoff
Structured Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation for clean shift handoffs.
I used to spend 45 minutes after every 12-hour shift just catching up on charting. Cribside cut that down to almost nothing. I actually go home on time now.

Common questions
Do I need hospital IT approval to use Cribside?
No. Cribside stores no patient identifiers — no names, MRNs, or dates of birth. It functions like a smart notepad on your personal device, which requires no IT approval, just like a drug calculator app.
Does it integrate with Epic or Cerner?
Cribside is EHR-agnostic — it generates clean clinical notes in standard nursing language that you copy and paste into any EHR. No integration needed.
What counts as PHI in voice recordings?
Never speak patient names, MRNs, or dates of birth. Use DOL (day of life), gestational age, and weight. Cribside reminds you of this every time you start a recording.
Is the dose calculator safe to use clinically?
The calculator provides reference doses for common NICU medications. Always verify against your hospital's formulary and pharmacy. High-alert medications require dual verification before the note can be copied.
What does the free plan include?
Free plan includes 5 notes per month — enough to test every feature with real patients. Pro ($19/mo) unlocks unlimited notes, full note history, the dose calculator, and priority support.
