Ep6: Immacula Jean-Charles, MSN, APN, FNP-BC, RN Highlights

“As Nurses, we're just such jack of all trades. Hey! Hello, I'm a Nurse {Coach}, I have all this knowledge, I can help you achieve whatever goal it is that you need to achieve. I am here to support you in achieving those goals and I can help you in any capacity.” Immacula Jean-Charles

Nurse Coaches are the Jack of All Trades. Nurses have incredible skills, knowledge, passion, intuition, innovation, and integrity and can excel in any area they choose to be in.
Burnout and fatigue in nursing are rampant and may Nurses consider leaving the profession because of it. It’s not because they are not passionate about the work. Instead, they become burned out with the hours, the stress, the emotional drain.
Nurse Coaching helps a Nurse slow down, to breathe and focus on the present. It helps one discover what really matters and to discover what one is passionate about in Nursing, so they stay in the Nursing profession.
Nurse Coaches use all these skills to support patients, clients, communities, and fellow healthcare practitioners achieve whatever goal they want.
Nurse Coaches can work anywhere! Nurse Coaches can work in hospital settings at the bedside, during care and preparing for discharge. In care co-ordination so the patient’s voice is heard. Doctors’ offices, corporate environments, community settings, schools, universities, everywhere, even in the government.
Nurse Coaches are the in-between. We have the knowledge, and we have the caring personality to come in and help them to connect, and help them to understand, and help them to express, and help them to create their own plans, and how they're going to take the doctor’s suggestions.

Ep5: Grow New Ears to Hear- Leslie Heron RN, MN, ARNP, FNP-BC, NC-BC

Leslie Heron, RN, MN, ARNP, FNP-BC, NC-BC Highlights

New Ears to Hear

“I think it (Nurse Coaching) gave me new ears to hear what my client’s goal was— and, you know, maybe bend them to my will a little bit (laughter)— and have them voice that goal and what they really want to work on. It made my work in cancer survivorship much more meaningful and accessible to my patients after getting my Nurse Coach certification.” Leslie Heron

Nurse Coaching impacts a healthcare practitioner’s view over their work positively and saves productivity and healthcare costs, because patients are not returning to the ED or clinics as often, since they are choosing to focus on goals and ideas that are central to their needs, not the practitioners. Practitioners have greater satisfaction and connection with their patients because of this partnership.
There is a big difference between the ‘prescriptive’ way of healthcare and the 'open ear' way of Nurse Coaching. Leslie speaks to the difference in depth.
Nurse Coaching provides Nurses more ease in their work. Instead of always ‘driving the bus, looking for directions, and leading the way’, a Nurse Coach may say, “Well, what direction do you want to drive the bus? And I'll help you, I’ll say ‘turn left here’, but I don't have to be the one reading the map all the time.”
A Nurse can use the skills and tools of Nurse Coaching anywhere they practice.
What happens when one can “Move at the speed of guidance.” (Michael Lerner)
Sometimes you must move a step above the chain of command when you hear the word ‘no’, from your supervisor to get answers you want and need.

Move More Freely Through Life - Judy Fasone MSN-ED, RN, CTP, HWNC-BC, AHN-BC Highlights

“My focus is self-care through movement, to move more freely, and I call it a moving meditation. Because if we slow our movements down and really become more aware of how things are working, it changes our whole way of being in the world.” ~Judy Fasone

When you move more freely, it allows you to follow your heart, and this offers many more opportunities to feel joy and happiness.
Combining Nurse Coaching with other modalities one is passionate about allows Nurse Coaching to become more personalized to the Nurse and to clients, patients, and communities.
Nurse Coaches are entrepreneurs, and can also work in more traditional Nursing roles.
Nurse Coaching reduces the use, impact, and burden to the healthcare system, because the skills of a Nurse Coach help people understand they can learn to rely on their own wisdom. It also helps them act earlier, instead of waiting for illness to happen.
Shifting Nursing practice to telehealth and becoming more comfortable in the virtual space opens more opportunities for Nurse Coaches to reach into their communities.
