What IS professional
holistic nurse coaching?
Nurse coaching is a skilled, purposeful, results-oriented,
and structured professional relationship.
It is a person-centered interaction
between a healthcare consumer and a
baccalaureate-prepared (or above) registered nurse
who is nationally Board Certified as a holistic provider.
Nurse coaching is evidence-based and theory-guided,
using the latest information related to
health, wellness, behavioral change, and client engagement.
A new practice model
Differing from client education, nurse coaching identifies client strengths to access internal motivation for change through a process of inquiry and empowerment, breaking the cycle of shame, blame, and failure.
The nurse coaching lens acknowledges integrative and holistic philosophies and principles through a whole-person model of care.
Nurse coaches walk with individuals through a self-discovery process,
using nurse coaching competencies and client engagement strategies to connect with an individuals’ strengths, meaning, and goals.
