Transition from hospital RN to Work from home

After being an inpatient peds nurse for over 30 years I quit my job for a multitude of different reasons and will begin a work from home case manager position on Monday. Other than the obvious transitioning issues like the schedule differences,  I'm wondering how others have managed and what tips or regrets you might have.                                                                                                

Congratulations!!

The only thing I don't like about WFH is that I do miss my coworkers and the camaraderie.

My biggest tip is to try to make a designated work space if you can.  It's a drag to work all day in one room, then try to relax or do non-work  related activities in that same room.  It can be a little depressing.  My other tip is to make friends with your IT department or someone on your team that is tech savvy if you are lacking in that area.  : )
