Work From Home

I know many nurses have posted about this, but I can’t find anything recent. Please don’t judge me, but I am at a point in my life and career where I want minimal to no contact with patients and pretty much work behind the scenes. No wknds or holidays.  I’m very tech savvy and task oriented. Variety of experience.  I would REALLY love to work from home and know there are a plethora of nurses wanting this, too, but I don’t know anyone personally who is doing this. If you work from home, would you please give details on your job and what you like/don’t like? Thank u in advance!

    I work from home doing case management/utilization review for a Women’s hospital and I love it.  Actually, the case management is few and far between, it’s mostly just your.  It’s the most stress-free position I’ve had in over 2 years.  

    How did you get your foot in the door for utilization review? Is it boring?

    Does anyone know how to transition from ICU/ED bedside nursing to a lower stress, more flexible work-from-home (WFH) position? 

    What is it like to do chart review, utilization management, and other WFH jobs?

    Any more insight into working from home would be very much appreciated!

    I transitioned from ICU & PACU to working from home several years ago.  I've done a few remote nursing jobs: triage/follow-up calls, clinical claim review/coding/appeals, and HEDIS data abstraction. 'Flexible' means different things to different people.  Every company/team will have different flex policies specific to them. HEDIS data abstraction seasonal jobs *usually* offer a more flexible schedule (some might have work when you want to hours, and others might have a time frame for you to complete your hours each day - it's all very unique to the company/team).

    I have tried out two different work from home positions since I first posted on here. The first one I lasted about a year and I monitored patients lung function, ultimately I wasn't in my element so I quit. The second is doing Chronic Care telephone calls, super flexible job and so far I like it. We aren't a huge team but it is nice, I can call whenever as long as I get my caseload done by a certain date. 

    I realized that the hardest part is getting any remote job in general, once you have any kind of remote job experience it opens all sorts of doors for you. I've had a few remote job offers since I had that first job. 

    The first remote job I had I just applied on Indeed. I do see that having a compact license really helped.
