CONSULTING FOR VALUE-BASED CARE
The care model looks right on paper.
It falls apart on the floor.
I help Nurse leaders fix the version of team-based care that has to hold up under a full patient panel on a short-staffed Tuesday. Bring me your care model problem or your turnover problem — I'll tell you what I see.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF
You've been handed outcomes
and a stretched-thin workforce.
01
You're a DON or nurse executive being asked to deliver value-based outcomes with a workforce that's already stretched thin.
02
Your organization added care management — and it's floating beside the care team instead of working inside it.
03
You're tired of consultants who've never stood inside a working value-based model, only benchmarked one.
04
Your turnover numbers have a story your exit interviews aren't telling — and you need someone who can hear it.
WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT
I ran the model.
I didn't study it.
Eight years running Iora Health clinics: hiring, training, workflows, real patient panels. I watched value-based care produce real results and I watched exactly where it breaks.
Most consultants in this space have a slide deck. I have scar tissue.
I'm a Board-Certified Holistic Nurse Coach (HWNC-BC) who still coaches real people today. A management consultant can redesign your care model. They can't tell you why your best nurse just gave notice. I treat those as one problem — because in nursing-led care, they are.

HOW I HELP
Care model design and workforce sustainability
are one problem.
Care Model Consulting
Designing or fixing team-based care — embedded coaching, nurse-led follow-up, care management workflows. Not the org chart version. The version that holds up on a short-staffed Tuesday.
Consulting Program Build-Out
Who to hire, how to train them, where clinical judgment has to sit, and how coaching connects to the care team instead of floating beside it. The part most organizations get wrong.
Nurse Leadership & Retention
Working with Nurse Executives on the problem underneath the turnover numbers — why experienced nurses leave, and what changes actually keep them.
Speaking & Training
For leadership teams and nursing staff, on value-based care, coaching as a clinical discipline, and sustainable practice for the people carrying the model.
"It broke when coaching was treated as a checkbox instead of a discipline. It broke when non-clinical health coaches hit the ceiling of complex patients. It broke when leadership burned out the exact people the model depended on. A model that burns out the people running it isn't a working model — it's a countdown."
