Nervecentre
Clinical task management and EPR
Clinical workflow & hospital operations
Founder-owned UK software company that grew from mobile clinical task management into a full electronic patient record contender now winning acute NHS trust contracts.
The read
Nervecentre began as a mobile clinical task-management and electronic observations tool for NHS wards and has since evolved into a full electronic patient record contender, winning a string of acute trust EPR contracts through 2025 and 2026, including Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust and Liverpool University Hospitals.
It remains founder-owned, with Paul Volkaerts continuing as chief executive since founding the company in 2010, and has grown without the venture or private-equity funding that characterises much of the rest of this category.
The Bridgehead view
Nervecentre's climb from a niche task-management app to a credible EPR alternative shows the NHS EPR market fragmenting beyond the traditional big-name suppliers, as trusts increasingly favour UK-built, clinically-led platforms with a track record in day-to-day ward operations.
