What nurse coaching is, and isn’t

Nurse coaching is a partnership. You bring your goals and your life experience; Jerri brings a nurse’s understanding of health and a coach’s focus on what you want to change. Coaching complements the care you get from your doctor and care team. It isn’t medical care: Jerri doesn’t diagnose, prescribe, or change medications.
