The Book
The memoir and the map.
Between Charts and Codes follows one nurse’s journey from the bedside to informatics — and reveals the hidden systems, data fields, workarounds, failures, and human decisions that shape care long before they appear on a dashboard.
The Nurse’s Journey Compass™
A framework born from the story.
The Nurse’s Journey Compass™ offers nurses a way to name where they are in the journey — not as a ladder, checklist, or straight line, but as a compass.
