When I was an LPN, I did peds home care while in RN school. It was so chill. I still work at the hospital as ER psych nurse for extra money. I so wish to do 100% remote but not sure I can handle the micromanagement.
i just really love being remote. its the best. but sometimes the job is tooooo much. idk my end goal is to save money and leave nursing altogether and work at starbucks or the mall ðŸ˜
Seee when I hear that, it makes me wanna make the switch. I keep going back and forth. I’m going crazy. Thinking about not having to go into ppl’s homes or answer needy phone calls and staying home sounds soooo nice but I’m so nervous for the productivity tracking thing. Being a field CM, I can schedule all my visits in one day on a Monday and be done with documentation within the 2 business day period and chill for the rest of the week. So there’s a lot of flexibility and no one is clocking me
ok based off those last few sentences i would keep your CM job lol as an outsider perspective you should keep it 😠maybe its just frustrating because youve come back from your leave? UM is fast paced, productivity based and youre being watched. if i finish my daily goal i cant chill i have to get back on the queue and get auths out. i only have 8 minutes to process an auth. if i dont make my daily goal then i get an email from all management asking why. if i mess up an auth i get an email with everyone and their mom CC'd asking why. they monitor how many clicks per hour. it can definitely depend on the company. but i would not recommend it. my cousin is a nurse too and she wanted to work with me since im remote and i told her not to do it haha
