  1. AALNC conference

    Pat, welcome. I am attending the National Conference, and I am one of the speakers. Yes it would be a good experience for the new or experienced LNC. Besides the program the networking oppourtunities alone make it a valuable, sometimes money making e...
  2. is legal nurse consulting worth pursuing?

    You really have to market yourself in this job as an LNC, as sirI said the AALNC course is excellent. I would recomend if you have a chance to find out, look and see if you have a local AALNC chapter near you. Go to a meeting and sit down and talk wi...
  3. Some ?? about getting started....

    Speaking as a graduate of the AALNC I think it is a great program if thats the direction your thinking of. One of the courses teaches you about marketing, and the nice thing I found was a local AALNC chapter. Plenty of seasoned LNC's to help get me s...

  9. PC requirements for LNC?

    You can get decent laptops now a days for $500.00 my recomendation is to go with one that you purchase an additional on site repair service. Having it repaired quickly at your home, VS mailing it out and waiting is well worth the investment. Back up ...
  10. Local LNC Meeting

    I think you do find some evidence of "competition" but for the most part the LNC meetings can provide you with good education and networking, many of the members in my group might come accross as elitist, or fearful of competition, but they warm up t...
  11. $100-$150 per hour...too good to be true?

    I have to disagree sort of with a couple of people. I get $100.00 and hour to review medical records so the salary is not unrealistic for someone just starting out. Additionally while a course is not required it is strongly recomended. Most nurses un...
