NurseLink

Read full description

NurseLink is the private nursing workspace built for independent concierge nurses, IV hydration nurses, private duty nurses, home health nurses, aesthetic nurses, postpartum nurses, and mobile care providers who need one polished place to run their practice. Designed for one nurse, not a clinic, agency, marketplace, or client portal, NurseLink helps you organize the daily work that keeps a private nursing business moving: client records, visit scheduling, SOAP notes, IV session documentation, invoices, credentials, service templates, and supplies. Whether you are seeing clients at home, in hotels, at events, or across a private duty schedule, NurseLink gives you a calm, professional workflow for keeping care and business details connected. Manage Nurse-Owned Client Records Build a clean client profile for every person you support. Keep medical context, visit history, emergency contacts, allergies, medications, notes, invoices, and care details in one local workspace. NurseLink is built around the real way concierge nurses work. A client is your record inside your app, not a separate app user account. No complicated portals. No role switching. No extra logins for clients or families. Plan Your Day Use the Today screen to see your next visit, upcoming schedule, alerts, outstanding invoices, and quick actions. Open directions, prepare for the next appointment, start documentation, or review what needs attention. The Schedule tab keeps visits organized by day so you can manage home visits, hotel appointments, IV hydration sessions, postpartum check-ins, private duty visits, and follow-up care without jumping between tools. Write SOAP Notes Faster Document subjective findings, objective observations, assessments, and plans from the visit workflow. NurseLink keeps SOAP notes connected to the client record so clinical documentation does not get buried in scattered notes, texts, screenshots, or spreadsheets. Paste or scan referral notes, intake details, or dictated text and NurseLink can sort the information into editable SOAP draft sections for review. You stay in control of what gets saved. Built for IV Hydration Nurses NurseLink includes a focused IV Hydration workflow for mobile drip nurses and concierge infusion providers. Create drip menu templates with service names, pricing, duration, descriptions, ingredients, Rx protocol flags, and default supplies. Use quick IV session documentation for hydration drips, Myers cocktail, NAD+ infusions, immune support, beauty/glow drips, recovery drips, and custom mobile IV services. Capture same-device intake, waiver/consent signer name, IV site, catheter gauge, attempts, access status, rate, pre/post vitals, observations, selected drip, invoice status, tip amount, and supplies used. Track supplies such as saline bags, IV start kits, tubing sets, catheters, and other session materials. NurseLink can decrement supply counts after an IV session and show low-stock alerts when inventory needs attention. Invoice the Same Day Create invoices from visits, IV sessions, and service templates. Track outstanding, paid, overdue, and same-day billing so your cash-pay practice stays organized. For IV hydration nurses, NurseLink supports same-day invoice creation with tip fields and mark-paid status, helping keep short mobile sessions efficient from intake to payment. Credential Storage Keep licenses, certifications, insurance, and other credentials organized in one place. Scan documents with local OCR support, review extracted details, and keep expiry reminders attached to your nurse workspace. Smarter Data Intake NurseLink reduces typing with nurse-triggered paste and scan tools. Add Client, SOAP notes, IV intake, and credentials can use pasted text or local OCR to create editable drafts. https://socialreporthq.com/nurselink/terms
