Will I ever get into CM??


I've been wanting to get into CM for sometime. I've received a certificate in CM (ok, I know that's not everything, but it's something), have studied a lot, etc, but can't find anyone to hire me in CM. The hospital I so desperately loved wouldn't even hire me. Everyone seemed to really like me. I have a good attitude, love being there, etc, but apparently the director of CM didn't like me. I have been crushed by it as I wanted to stay at the hospital I so desperately loved, but no luck. I'm going for my MS now and wanted to only work part-time at this time. I know if I was willing to work FT, I'd probably have more chances, but is there anyway I can get into CM part-time? I really want a future in this area of nursing and plan to work FT when I'm done with my MS. Bedside nursing, while I loved it at one point, really got to me and all the other nurses I worked with. Any suggestions? I'm willing to work in insurance, homecare, etc. What area is best? Thanks!

Have you thought of being an RN-auditor? You can find more information at:

Other certifications are:

CHC (Certified in Healthcare Compliance) offered through the Health Care Compliance Association. More information can be found at:

CPHQ (Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality) offered through the Healthcare Quality Certification Board. More information can be found at:

http://www.cphq.org/

Check out the requirements to take the certification exams. Some may not require work experience, which would allow new graduates or RNs (in diverse fields) to take the exams and move into other fields.
