Get the full story from every shift

Kernl debriefs your support workers after every shift, drafts your notes and compliance reports, and tells your team what to follow up.

A support worker's thin note about Ruby's shift. Kernl checks it has enough detail and asks five questions: what she noticed, what led up to it, how she supported Ruby and who she told, how the rest of the outing went, and what to do differently. Each answer fills Ruby's incident report and progress note in the provider's templates, the incident and two suggested tasks land in the team's Tasks, and both reports arrive in the worker's shift feed.

A support worker's thin note about Ruby's shift. Kernl checks it has enough detail for the incident report and asks four questions: what she noticed, what led up to it, how she supported Ruby and who she told, and what to do differently. Both reports arrive in the worker's shift feed, the incident and two suggested tasks land in the team's Tasks, and the incident report opens, written in the provider's template from her answers.

What actually happens on shift rarely makes it into the notes.

So your team spends the week chasing missing reports, late incidents and the detail nobody wrote down.

One of these shifts had an incident. Can you find it?

Turn a note over to see what really happened.

Get every detail as it happens, and your team can get back to care.

  1. Every shift accounted for

    Support workers add notes as they go. Before they finish, Kernl checks every note and asks for anything missing while it's still fresh.

    Ruby's shift in the worker app: three short notes from the day. The worker taps I'm Done, Kernl checks her notes, then asks what she noticed when Ruby went quiet after lunch.

  2. Reporting you can trust

    Workers don't need to know which report to write or what goes in it. Every report comes out consistent, complete and in your templates.

    Kernl's Clinical templates page, listing the provider's report templates, from progress notes and incident reports to restrictive practice and risk assessments, and observation charts such as bowel, sleep and fluid charts, each one editable.

  3. Kernl keeps watch

    Kernl's Agents read every shift and escalate what you need to know, from a worrying trend to a missed follow-up. Set up routines for the rest, like a morning brief or a weekly risk review.

    Kernl's Agents in the team app: an escalation after Leo's shift about his new tablets, waiting for the team leader's go-ahead, then what the daily brief and weekly risk review routines found.

  4. Every worker arrives prepared

    Before every shift, Kernl tells workers what's changed for their client, straight from the latest notes and care plan. Support carries on where the last shift left off.

    A support worker's phone before her shift with Ruby. She taps Kernl's notification and reads what's changed since her last shift, including what's new in Ruby's care plan: she was unwell yesterday, so offer water every hour on outings.

  5. Evidence for the funding they need

    Every shift adds to a clear record of the support each person really needs. When a funding review or change in circumstances comes up, Kernl drafts the letter for you, with the evidence behind every point.

    Kernl in the team's web app. A team leader asks it to draft a change of circumstances letter for Sam's support coordinator. Kernl reads 12 weeks of Sam's shift notes and reports, then drafts a full Funding Review Report in the provider's template: his current shared support, how his needs changed, what went unmet, the risks, the evidence, and a recommendation for one-to-one support every afternoon and evening, citing the shifts behind each point.

Your workers only need one app

Kernl connects to the rostering and client systems you already use. Workers debrief in Kernl, and their notes, reports and timesheets flow back where they belong.

    Roll it out

    Team by team across your organisation, with training for each role and rollout communications ready to send. Those who started first keep using Kernl throughout.

  • Will it stand up to an NDIS or aged care audit?

    Every note and incident report follows your template and records what happened, what led to it, what was done and who was told.

  • Who has the final say?

    Your people. Workers check and submit every report, and your team decides what to do with everything Kernl flags.

  • Will our workers actually use it?

    Yes. They have one conversation, in any language, and every report they need comes out of it. It makes their day far simpler.

Is our data safe?

Yes. Some of Australia's largest care providers trust Kernl with their clients' data.

Names and personal details are redacted before they reach the AI model. AI providers keep no data, and client data never trains a model.
