Empower your organization to influence outcomes toward financial, environmental, social and physical health of the community you serve and the people supporting your business.

Lupine Creative Consulting was founded in 2004 by Julius G. Goepp, MD and Tiesha D. Johnson, RN. With over 30 years of healthcare delivery and research experience between them, they
aspired to utilize experiences in healthcare and Participatory Action Research (PAR) to contribute to improving individual, family and community outcomes in healthcare as well as ordinary life settings.
We can help your business or organization develop new programs and services, or improve existing programs and services to meet the specific health needs of the community you serve.

We use a qualitative research approach to understand the health-related needs, perceptions and behaviors of individuals, families and groups as they relate to available programs, services and resources in the community.

This personalized approach enhances communication and strengthens the relationship between organizations and the communities supporting them.

We use ethnographic, phenomenological, grounded theory and participatory action research methods to gain insight into the unique attributes, perceptions and values that are most prominent among specific communities and populations.

Program Evaluation: We work with our clients to determine the relationship that their programs and services have with all aspects of health specific to the communities they are serving. We will conduct a comprehensive community health and needs assessment specific to the population your organization serves. We will analyze the data collected and provide you with a summary of findings as they relate to your program or service.

Strategic Planning: We collaborate with our clients to conduct community health needs and strength assessments, clarify goals and desired outcomes and develop an action plan to develop new programs and services or strengthen the impact of existing programs and services on the health and wellness of the communities they serve.

Our team has extensive experience with professional writing in healthcare and social sciences. Our services include:
• Articles
• Educational Course Content
• Program Policies
• Grant Proposals

Professional Consultation: We provide clinical and organizational consultation for practice and policy matters in healthcare settings.

• Nursing: Scope and standards for practice, code of ethics, organizational policy development, performance evaluation and staff inservices in all areas of nursing practice.

• Mental Health: Clinical case consultation for child, adolescent and adult behavioral, emotional and psychiatric conditions.

Qualitative research, program evaluation, strategic planning, health education and professional consultation taylored to the needs of each client.

• We worked with a large urban hospital to conduct a qualitative study to assess potential barriers and facilitators to inpatient palliative care utilization as articulated by health professionals.
• We were able to partner with participants to identify stakeholder categories and major themes to describe health professionals’ understanding of palliative care specific to that institution. This project empowered the participants to enable action toward improvements that are most meaningful to them.
• We evaluated emergency medicine physician education and training at a medical center in Kosovo. During that project we were presented with an opportunity to conduct an ethnography focused on nurse education and role identity. Based on our findings we created an inter-professional curriculum development program to foster nursing professionalism through synthesis of participatory action research, grounded theory and standard curriculum development methodology.
• We conducted a case study that was designated for nursing continuing education credit. Educational objectives included:
Describing the dimensions and definitions of Fitchett’s Model of spiritual assessment.
Application of Fitchett’s Model with cultural considerations for a Laotian Buddhist Family.
• We developed an educational program on child psychosocial and physical development, risks associated with physical restraint, health conditions that increase risks and assessment of child respiratory status. The program was targeted for nurses working in child and adolescent residential treatment settings.
• We worked with a medical diagnostics laboratory to determine abnormal fecal biomarker test results in patients with irritable bowel syndrome and related conditions. We also collaborated with the laboratory to evaluate the economic utility of structured fecal biomarker panel testing in lowering medical and gastrointestinal procedural costs associated with irritable bowel and related conditions.
• We provide article content for a major nutrition magazine specific to health conditions and benefits associated with various nutraceutical supplements.
• Lupine Creative Consulting is also involved in development of products and services focused on the human intestinal microbiome. Through research and development, we hope to have significant impact on human health as modulated by the microbiome.
