Work from home as a RN

I was looking into becoming a medical transcriptionist.

I would advise against becoming a medical transcriptionist. Most hospitals are eliminating their in-house transcriptionists and using online companies. My GF did medical transcription for 24 yrs, last 10 yrs from home. The hospital laid off all their transcriptionists and went to an online company. The online companies pay you per line (6-9 cents/line). Doctors speak very fast when they dictate and many of the foreign doctors are had to understand. Unless you can type 100 words/min, it would be difficult to make a living. Add to the fact that many hospitals incorporate speech to text software for their dictation. My GF's former dept. lost half of their dictation in her last year working for the hospital due to speech-to-text software.

Do you have oncology experience? I work for a company doing chart abstraction on a part-time basis.

Any legit at home position would require childcare while you are on the clock.

If you only need 1000 dollars a month, a few shifts in the hospital would qualify.

How about Health Information Technology (HIT)? Some people review charts from home. There's also Utilization Management RNs who possibly work remotely. I would definitely check it out.

Hope this helps!

You are going to need childcare for any work from home job that is legit. Why not go PRN at a hospital and maybe do a few night shifts a month. Per Diem positions usually pay more since they don't offer you benefits.

@Swellz I have 3 years oncology experience what does this job consist of I would be very interested!

@swellz I'm also interested! I also have some oncology experience working on a medsurg/oncology floor for 4 years. Thanks!

Oh gosh... I couldn't even STUDY FOR SCHOOL with my one year old, let alone work at home ? the older they get, the harder it is.. they don't/cant understand at young ages that "mommy needs to concentrate and work on *blahblah*". They just want/need human contact/attention. I don't know how that is going to work out ?

I made a rule to NEVER even attempt studying or homework at home because it would just frustrate both of us. I never really got anything accomplished and it was just a disaster. The only thing that semi-worked was taking him out to the park, but even then i was distracted having to watch him while trying to get things done

Everyone is different, so are kids. Good luck! but fair warning, I highly advise against this idea ?
