“…For example, in the field of nursing: “Nurse coaches are strategically positioned and equipped to implement health-promoting and evidence-based strategies with clients and support behavioral and lifestyle changes to enhance growth, overall health, and wellbeing. 5 To advance a collaborative research agenda and compile evidence on best practices.

“…Expertise in health and wellness coaching has been emerging simultaneously in diverse fields. While much of the original research comes from psychology (ie, health psychology and motivational psychology) 16 - 18 and health promotion, 19 there are myriad contributions from the fields of nursing, 5 rehabilitation medicine, 20 - 23 and internal medicine, 22 , 24 , 25 as well as from nutrition 26 and exercise sciences. 27 , 28 Growing numbers of stake-holders in academia, industry, and non-profit entities also have invested in training and educating health and wellness coaches.…”

The purpose of this article is twofold: (1) to announce the findings of the job task analysis as well as national training and education standards for health and wellness coaching (HWC) that have been developed by the large-scale, collaborative efforts of the National Consortium for Credentialing Health and Wellness Coaches (NCCHWC) and (2) to invite commentary from the public. The rapid proliferation of individuals and organizations using the terms of health and/or wellness coaches and the propagation of private industry and academic coach training and education programs endeavoring to prepare these coaches has created an urgent and pressing need for national standards for use of the term health and wellness coach, as well as minimal requirements for training, education, and certification. Professionalizing the field with national standards brings a clear and consistent definition of health and wellness coaching and accepted practice standards that are uniform across the field. In addition, clear standards allow for uniform curricular criteria to ensure a minimal benchmark for education, training, and skills and knowledge evaluation of professional health and wellness coaches.

“…17,18 Peer nurse coaches focus on the needs, strengths, and weaknesses of the learner, and they use conversation and reflection in the context of confidentiality and trust. 19 This process is particularly useful for imparting one-on-one ''skill-based'' education and learning.…”

New nurse hires lacked end-of-life nursing experience in the hospital, and mechanisms were unavailable to guide them. A quality improvement project was developed to address this. Seventy-three registered nurses representing 39 nursing units received training as end-of-life peer nurse coaches. This training included 2 hours of end-of-life education and 2 hours of communication/simulation training. Coaches were provided with communication prompt cards, a Nurse to Nurse: Palliative Care book, and additional resources. The outcome of the project on peer nurse coach self-perceived competency was measured using an abridged version the Scale of End of Life Care in the ICU tool before and after training, at 6 months, and at 1 year. A report card was used to record coaching activities at 6 months, and a survey was conducted to evaluate these activities at 1 year. Peer nurse coach self-perceived competencies in end-of-life care delivery improved after training, at 6 months (P < .01), and at 1 year (P < .05). Qualitative findings highlighted various ways peer nurse coaches manifest these new roles. The plan-do-study-act method, the peer nurse coach approach, availability of unit-based end-of-life resources, and peer nurse coach mentoring had positive effects on peer nurse coach self-perceived end-of-life competence and their abilities to coach new nurse hires. KEY WORDSacute care, end-of-life care, peer nurse coach, quality/ improvement/review/assurance, staff education E nd-of-life (EOL) care in acute care hospitals is said to often be inadequate, of poor quality, and deficient in both the amelioration of physical symptoms and the ability to address the emotional and psychosocial needs of dying patients. 1 In the past, families of dying patients reported severe pain, dyspnea, agitation, and other symptoms in their loved ones, 2 and although some of these patients desired comfort care, many received unwanted aggressive life-sustaining treatments until death. 2 More recent studies indicate that seriously ill, aged, and dying hospitalized patients continue to experience symptom distress. Many die after ICU stays within the last month of life. 3-5 These patients frequently require ventilator withdrawal and experience less than ideal attention to quality of care in the aftermath. 4 A focus on prolongation of life, the propensity toward inadequate symptom control, and insufficient communication are associated with lack of awareness of approaching death and shortcomings regarding health care professional knowledge and skills in the delivery of EOL care. This is particularly true in hospital health care settings where death is viewed as failure. 1 Hospital care of the dying is of concern in the United States because a majority of EOL patients die in hospital settings despite the growth of hospice 3,4 and because hospitals continue to be places where day-to-day EOL care is delivered by nurses with insufficient EOL support and training. 6,7 Studies indicate variability in palliative and EOL nursing education in undergraduate, 7,8 gr...

“…In addition, health and wellness coaching is completed from the context of a safe and trusted space. Establishing the space by the nurse is intentional, and as Dossey and Hess (2013) asserted, "the professional nurse coach works with the whole person using principles and modalities that integrate body, mind, emotion, spirit, and environment" (p. 10).…”

Health care environments are complex and chaotic, therein challenging patients and professionals to attain satisfaction, well-being, and exceptional outcomes. These chaotic environments increase the stress and burnout of professionals and reduce the likelihood of optimizing success in many dimensions. Coaching is evolving as a professional skill that may influence the optimization of the health care environment. This article reflects on three coaching programs: Gallup Strengths-Based Coaching, Dartmouth Microsystem Coaching, and Health and Wellness Nurse Coaching. Each approach is presented, processes and outcomes are considered, and implications for educators are offered. Continuing education departments may recognize various coaching approaches as opportunities to support staff professionals achieve not only the triple aim, but also the quadruple aim.
