Thanks for the support, Miracle 1986. I thought about doing medical insurance approvals, but I'm such a patient advocate that I hate to deny services to someone who is in need of them. My search continues and I'm sure I'll find something to meet my needs. Sincerely, Angie

Thanks for responding CritterLover. You gave me some good ideas. Angie

Thanks, Tweety, I appreciate you moving my thread. Angie

Hello Everyone, I am a new member to allnurses.com. I am looking forward to corresponding with all of you on interesting topics. To begin introductions, My name is Angie RN, BSN, BA. I live in Baltimore County, Maryland. I am 36 years old and have been a nurse for almost 8 years. I also have a psyc degree prior to nursing school which took me nowhere career wise and financially. I do not have a specialty in nursing, per say, but I have lots of experience. I began working in the hosptial setting on tele. It was too overwhelming for me being a new nurse, and then soon after I was diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder. I then moved onto skilled nursing in a nursing home where I worked for two years (I also did MDS nursing for 6 months while in this setting). Next, I moved onto Home Health and soon after became a liaison nurse for Lifebridge Health. I'm now working for an agency that has placed me in many unique settings where I have gained additional and wonderful experience. I am now searching for a job where I can work from home. On top of having anxiety disorder, I also have Tourette's (I don't curse or yell out), and Narcolepsy. It is very difficult for me to work shift work, and the hospital setting is too anxiety-provoking for me. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get employed with someone who will allow me to work from home? I also thought about medical transcription. Can I bypass all the technical training courses since I am a nurse? Angie
