About Us

A Team Built to Support Nursing Leadership

We saw the immense pressure on nursing leaders. We saw dedicated nurses leaving the profession due to burnout and systems that failed to support them. We knew there had to be a better way than outdated surveys and reactive exit interviews. 


Indicator Sciences was founded at the intersection of deep nursing advocacy and pioneering data science. We brought together clinical leaders who have lived the challenges of the nursing workforce with the data scientists who revolutionized healthcare analytics. Our single, shared mission: to give nurse leaders the objective insights and expert partnership they need to build confident, resilient, and sustainable teams.
