Work at Home as a Nurse

Saturday June 20, 2009

All work-at-home moms probably feel like nurses at times, but, in fact, some WAHMs really are nurses. At first glance, nursing seems like hands-on profession not adaptable to telecommuting. But nursing can take many forms including working as a telecommuting nurse.

Nurses working from home might do telephone triage, helping to assess patients' health concerns over the phone. Or, they might give more general health advice to callers. Nurses might also telecommute as case managers.

Another related career commonly worked from home is medical transcription. This is a good work-at-home possibility for those who've worked in the medical field but are not nurses. Medical knowledge is helpful in this work-at-home career and training is necessary, but no college degree is required.
