Are there any jobs for nurses who loves writing?

Specializes in Documentation, Medication Administration.

I don't know where else to put this so I guess this is the right thread to post it to.

Anyways, I'm good at paper works but when it comes to hands on training, I'm so bad at it. I'm just not much of a hands on learner unless someone shows me how to do a procedure and me actually trying to do it. I love writing and I was wondering which job is perfect for someone like me. Nursing requires a lot of documentation so there's that.

Specializes in Case mgmt., rehab, (CRRN), LTC & psych.

This site (Allnurses.com) hires talented nurse writers, and other nursing websites also use nurse writers. However, you would need some relevant work experience on which to base your writings. In addition, most nurse writers have full-time jobs in hospitals, colleges or elsewhere. The writing tends to be a side gig.

There are other nursing jobs that require a great deal of writing (nurse scientist, nursing professor, case manager, utilization review nurse) but these positions also require some relevant bedside nursing experience.
