Default did you check disease management companies
I found one and started about 5 months ago and love it but the income is lower than I was getting so I also work another part time job. I found ads on the internet.

Corinne,

McKesson was running ads in my area (South Texas) a few months ago looking for disease management nurses to work at home. Caremark in San Antonio has telephonic nurses working at home but they may require that you work first in the office and then transition to home. Seach all of the disease management companies and insurance companies, etc. to see what you find.

Another thought is that some hospice and home care agencies hire triage nurses to work from home and take calls. The triage nurse "dispatches" the on-call nurse if it is needed.

Good luck!!
