I became a raw food nutrition specialist and lifestyle coach. You'll have to make your own job however you can look into energy healing, herbalogy, etc. I was a western nurse for a lot of years and, like you, have moved into an alternative arena where I feel I'm giving people valuable information and assisting them to take control of their health. There's a ton of stuff out there.

Sounds like me. I'm starting dialysis training after speaking with a few dialysis nurses who really convinced me. Hope that helps.:)
-
Great idea! How did you go about it?

I'm all for it! Financial backers would be the way to go.

10 patients is a dream for most LTC's. Most that I've heard of had 20-over 30 residents! Good luck in your new endeavor!

Update: I just had a very long conversation with the administrator on the phone and they're going to fly me over for a visit. I fully expect this to be a challenge but isn't that what life is all about? No risk no gain. Right? (applause)

I mean 'there.' LOL

WOW! You're scaring me folks. I'm thinking of accepting a DON offer because I'm pretty burned out in acute (many years in ICU/ER/management) and thought it would be FUN! Can anyone here tell me what they like about their job? I mean, staffing and personalities can always be a challenge but their must be decent administrators out there??

Ever think about being a nurse entrepreneur? Why not be a consultant for LTC and work for yourself?
-
I'm thinking of making the switch - what IS the different focus of LTC?

My passion is having a lot of fun while earning! I'm pretty diverse - raw food nutrition specialist, that kind of thing. But all that aside, I used to give talks on health to the townsfolk while I was living in a little coastal town in Oregon and LOVED it. It didn't pay the rent but I had a ball!

Any ideas on finding a good recruiter? Can anyone recommend someone? Thanks in advance.

I've been in ICU across the country for about 20 years. Stay calm so your brain works. Find an experienced ICU nurse and they will let you know when to rush like a maniac. Never stop asking questions because the key here is to learn. You can always take an antiemetic when nausea strikes. You sound like you'd be an excellent ICU nurse. Follow your heart :)
