I took a huge pay cut when my hospital decided to do away with their unit based 13 wk contracts and I had to take a staff position (making nearly $15.00 less an hour). Because of all the cut-backs in the hospital to save money, there really aren't many other higher paying positions that I can take. Problem is I am a mother of 2 school aged children and a 1 year-old and I can only work on my husband's days off. I would like to find an at home job for supplemental income. I was thinking medical transcription/coding. I also thought about maybe an evening job as a nurse instructor for nursing assistants certifications. My local community college offers short courses on transcriptioning/billing and nurse educators. Does anyone have this same kind of perdicament? or does anyone have any suggestions or advice? ( My husband makes an okay wage but his hours have been majorly cut back and we're constantly worried that his company may lay him off.)
