Creative Health Care Management (CHCM) operates as a privately owned American company specializing in consultation and education within the health care industry. Its headquarters are located in Bloomington, Minnesota. Established in 1982 by Marie Manthey under the name Creative Nursing Management, the organization later adopted its current name to represent an expanded commitment to comprehensive systemic transformation.

Consulting Practice

CHCM was initially founded to facilitate the adoption of primary nursing principles, drawing upon insights gained at the University Hospital. The company created educational programs designed to equip staff nurses with leadership and management skills. These programs have been licensed internationally, allowing partner entities to conduct their own 'train-the-trainer' sessions to disseminate CHCM’s methodologies.

The renaming from Creative Nursing Management to Creative Health Care Management marked a strategic evolution toward collaborative partnerships with health care providers.

Nursing literature

CHCM has contributed significantly to nursing scholarship, producing key publications that support its strategic approach and influence within the market. The Practice of Primary Nursing, originally published in 1980 and revised in 2002, remains a seminal work in the field.

In 2004, CHCM introduced Relationship-Based Care: A Model for Transforming Practice, which broadened primary nursing concepts to encompass various hospital departments. This publication received the 2004 American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Award in Leadership and Management.

Further notable works include 'I2E2: Leading Lasting Change' (2007), which also earned recognition as an American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year; 'See Me As a Person' (2012); and 'Primary Nursing: Person-Centered Care Delivery System Design' (2016), honored with the 2016 American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Award in Nursing Management and Leadership.

In 2017, CHCM released 'Advancing Relationship-Based Culture,' which was awarded the 2018 James A. Hamilton Book of the Year Award by the American College of Healthcare Executives. This accolade underscores CHCM’s role in promoting relational and clinical excellence within health care organizations.
