Intensive Care, Outpatient Surgery, Aesthetics, Education, and Nursing Leadership
Are you searching for work–from–home nursing jobs?
Are you burnt out from the bedside? Or are you wanting to be able to stay at home more often with your family?
Whatever the case may be, work–from–home nursing jobs are in high demand.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare companies across the nation are incorporating permanent telehealth services.
Surprisingly enough, there are more nursing jobs now that do not involve in-person patient care than there ever were before.
That’s the beauty of nursing. There is a vast amount of everchanging opportunity.
If you would have told me when I graduated nursing school that I would have tons of clinical nursing experience, be working in an amazing office, blogging, and writing nursing education for living with a husband and two children before I was 30, I would have laughed and thought you were lying.
But guess what? This is my life, and I love it!
You can love your new gig too! You just have to figure out what best fits you, your schedule, and lifestyle.
It may take a little networking and extra searching, but you can touch people’s lives and make an impact away from the bedside.
Reputable, expert career navigators at The Balance Careers, outline several work–from–home nursing jobs that you can do with your nursing background! These opportunities include:
Let‘s dive in a little deeper and break down what exactly these jobs entail.
Medical call centers or telephone triage nurses are responsible for providing professional and clinical advice to patients who currently do not have access to medical services; Typically, the level of care needed is non-emergent.
However, they may refer patients to emergency services if their symptoms are critical.
Both work–from–
home nursing jobs serve as the first line of contact between patients, so the nurse must receive as much patient history as possible in order to refer appropriate levels of care, resources, or at-home treatments.
Trusted online resource for nurses, everynurse.org, highlights that one must pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX) and maintain their RN credentials in order to be hired on to these work–from–home nursing jobs.
This work–from–home nursing job allows RNs to take their years of clinical experience, leadership, and care planning and utilize them at home!
In most cases, you will mainly work with your facility‘s multidisciplinary team to provide high–quality patient care.
Although this position is remote, you will play a main role in the utilization of the nursing process (assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation) upon the patient‘s admission and until their discharge.
The American Association of Legal Nurse Consultants defines a legal nurse consulting position as “a licensed registered nurse who performs a critical analysis of clinically related issues in a variety of settings in the legal arena.“
Based on your skills and experience, this position is one of the best paying work–from–home nursing jobs you can land!
Career experts at Zippia describe the healthcare and nurse recruiter role as being an “essential part of a facility‘s successful operation“ due to them actively searching for the best employees.
A nurse recruiter should have at least two-to-four years of experience in the nursing field as well as exceptional leadership and communication skills.
Although many aspects of this job used to require several in-person activities (i.e. job fairs, in-house recruitment programs, etc.), it is likely that virtual events that were created as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic may be utilized more often in the future.
If you have a passion for connecting with others, this might be one of the best work–from–home nursing jobs for you!
As you know, CEs are a must!
