Nursing is a wonderful profession but it is also hard work, can be physically and emotionally demanding as well as mentally taxing.

Working from home as a nurse may be no less stressful or mentally taxing, however, it has many attractive benefits.  Namely:no commute, no long hours away from your family, and, since you can expect to be working telephonically, it will be less physically demanding as well.


Carenet is a company based out of San Antonio, TX, that hires qualified registered nurses to work out of their homes in the area of telephone triage.

Providing Health Care support.



CareNet Nurses are available 24 hours a day, so you may be required to work overnight shifts and/or weekends.




My Take?


 
I hear from many nurses who are tired of the rat race and wish to bring in a good income but also wish to avoid the long hours away from their families that are usually part and parcel of being a nurse. 

Working for a company like this and avoiding a commute, as well as doing away with  12 hour shifts away from your family seems like a pretty great deal.


When you add in that you make approximately $25 an hour and are eligible for benefits such as medical, dental vision, life insurance 401k as well as paid time off and holidays, the job becomes even more desirable.


Remember that working from home, you avoid many of the costs of working outside of the home, such as paying for gas, lunches out, uniforms and good walking shoes (That is a necessity as a nurse!).  That $25  per hour can go a long way when you subtract those expenses!  The only thing you might have to invest in besides a good headset is a comfy office chair!

Click on the link above then choose "Clinical Services (RN)." Choose Care Advisor, then simply follow the link to submit your online application.


Please note that when you apply, you will be asked to fill out a web questionnaire.  Please take your time and fill it out carefully.

Among other things, companies are always looking for people with good character so I would always suggest taking care to portray yourself in the best light.  Be careful to avoid spelling mistakes and get your resume ready in case it is needed.




Good luck!
