Back to work with knee problems...work at home

With 30 years of nursing experience I now find myself unable to work thanks to a total knee replacement gone bad. Looking for ideas....background in high risk OB, L&D, long term care and home health. Unable to walk great distances or for long periods of time. Thought about legal nurse consulting and have looked into Vikki Milazzo Institute but so expensive....haven't been able to work for 2 yrs. Any thoughts...I really want to get back to work but working at home would probably be best. Any thoughts or suggestions....really could use your help. :confused:

Don't give up on LNC. Try another school. Kaplan is great, with great payment plan too! Also, think about screening calls for Dr.s at night. I'm looking in Shreveport. La. area....anyone know of anything? I have 33 years with a variety of acute care and long term care background.

Good luck!

hello, moose8810 and welcome to allnurses.com

i see you are interested in the lnc career. check out this sticky thread found at the top of the legal nursing forum:

aalnc and milazzo legal nurse consulting programs

there are many other educative entites. just post in the legal nursing forum for helpful advice.

good luck and we hope you enjoy allnurses.com!!

Have you thought about telephone triage? There are a variety of roles in differing specialties see the forum for more details

take a look at your local insurance companies. many of them have nurse case management at this time and some of the postions are work at home after about a 6 month period.

I went to insurance nursing after i had a laminectomy after 4 years of being a nurse, oh course i was a EMT with a comerical ambulance service as well ( this did not help matters much)

My job sitting in a little cubicle and reviewing pts inpt request or current stays and playing policey or miliman standards to make sure that the services rendered are approprate.
