258: Every Hospital Will Have a Nurse Coach Department (Part 1)

Today, in Part 1 from our most recent masterclass, Laura makes the case that nurse coaching is moving from an emerging specialty into a legitimate healthcare service line, and that the infrastructure needed to build nurse coach departments is already beginning to take shape.

She explores what happens when a role that already exists in practice gets named, credentialed, supported by evidence, and eventually built into the healthcare system.

Laura breaks down the current landscape of nurse coaching, including CPT codes, credentialing, federal language, health-system examples, reimbursement considerations, and what it takes to build a sustainable nurse coach department.

She also shares the experience that led her out of traditional nursing and toward nurse coaching, and why the relational side of nursing deserves more time, recognition, and structure.

Tune in next week for our Q&A segment to complete our discussion in Part 2.
