Welcome to Empower Care Academy
Welcome, nurses šŸ˜ Thank you to each and every one of you who decided to join this community and explore what care management can make possible for you. This Skool is not social media. It’s an intentional learning space. The more you engage, ask questions, comment, and participate, the more value you’ll unlock here. Engagement matters because community is how clarity is built. This space is designed to: - Help you understand what care management actually is - Expose you to the opportunities nurses often don’t see - Give you context, language, and confidence around this work This is not my full mentorship. The mentorship is separate and available to those who decide they want deeper, guided support. What you’ll find here is education, perspective, and a community that helps you think differently about your skills and options. Whether you’re: - Just learning - Just curious - Or not quite ready yet You belong here. Sometimes clarity doesn’t come from information alone. Sometimes it comes from community. That’s what this is. Start here šŸ‘‡šŸ½ Introduce yourself in the comments:1ļøāƒ£ What made you join Empower Care Academy?2ļøāƒ£ What’s one thing you’re curious to learn about care management? Weekly Live Support I’ll be hosting Care Management Office Hours every Wednesday at 7:00 PM Eastern. This is a live space for Q&A, discussion, and guidance. Happy New Year 2026.We are stepping into leadership in care management together. Natasha

Allow me to Introduce Myself
Hi everyone! I’m Natasha Jackson, RN, CEO of iCareRN, and I’m so excited to welcome you to our community. šŸ˜ Let me share a bit about myself and how I got here. I’ve been a nurse for over 20 years, and about two and a half years ago, I took a leap of faith and started my own care management business. At the time, I had no formal experience in care management, just my clinical expertise, a passion for helping patients, and a drive to make a difference. Fast forward to today, I’ve built my business from the ground up, signed my first six-figure contract this year, and learned so much along the way. It wasn’t easy, and I certainly didn’t do it alone. With the guidance of coaches, valuable resources, and a lot of hard work, I gained the confidence to turn my vision into reality. That’s proof to me that with the right mindset, mentorship, and resources, anything is possible. Now, my mission is to share what I’ve learned to help other nurses avoid the pitfalls I faced and build successful, sustainable care management businesses of their own. This community is a space for us to grow together, share ideas, and support each other in this journey toward entrepreneurship. I’m here to help you take those first steps, provide guidance, and cheer you on as you build something extraordinary. Let’s make an impact together. Welcome to the community! šŸ‘©šŸ½ā€āš•ļø

What are some questions Nurses have about starting a Business in CCM
What are the big questions you have about CCM and starting a business, what are your challenges. I hated marketing my services, I believe I would have done so much more if I were more active with my marketing. But I'm grateful for the opportunities I have now as they are aligned with how I want to show up and what I love doing. Let's talk about it tonight during our weekly live event. Hope you can join us.
Remote Patient Monitoring 101
Tonight at 7:00 PM ET | Empower Care Academy Live Join me tonight for a 30-minute live conversation on Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM). This is RPM 101. Practical, real-world, and straight to the point. We’ll cover: - What RPM is and how it actually works in primary care - What can be billed and what has changed recently - How RPM fits alongside care management - What implementation really looks like - Common questions and misconceptions - This is not a sales pitch and not a deep technical training. It’s about understanding the model, the clinical role, and the opportunity for nurses inside CMS-aligned care. I’ll also be sharing a RPM 101 PDF to support the discussion and give you something concrete to reference after the session. If you’re a nurse curious about RPM, care management, or how these programs work together in real practice, this session is for you. Come live if you can. If not, a replay will be posted. See you tonight at 7 PM ET.
