After reading some posts on here written by nurses, it intrigues me why a nurse would want to get into the rat's nest world of MT. Is it the lure of a work-at-home job? Or is there something else I'm not aware of? I was just reading on a nursing forum where many were complaining of being called off or being required to float, having their hours permanently cut back due to critical shortages and/or low census, even having foreign nurses brought in at a lower ...

Any one out there going to nursing school, or at least starting with getting the prereqs out of the way, take a nurse aide job to help gain experience? There are quite a few CNA positions at our local hospital. Although I'm not a CNA, but working on pursuing my nursing degree, but I am considering taking a pay cut to do nurse aide work to gain the experience. Just wondered if anyone else out there did this. The only thing that scares me is that I've been at home ...

I started taking the nursing program at my local college 10 years ago and loved it, but dropped out after a year to get married, bad decision! So, just looking to see if anyone here has been a nurse or is going into nursing and what they like/dislike about their jobs. I am also looking into the RN program in the future. ...

Something to consider before you invest in training. Not saying don't do it, just be aware that you're not guaranteed a job when you graduate. http://money.cnn.com/2013/01/14/news/economy/nursing-jobs-new-grads/index.html?iid=HP_LN&hpt=hp_t2 ...

What training did you take? How long was it? Was it expensive? Did you find it easy to get a job after completion? Thanks. ...

Has anyone made the decision to go back to school for nursing? I am 45 years old and am seriously considering going to school this fall. I would be starting from scratch as I have no college education. I am debating on whether to pursue an associates (RN) or bachelors degree (BSN). I am wondering if anyone else near my age is doing this and how are they faring. Any input would be greatly appreciated. ...

Anyone seriously considering this? I am concerned about the money issue, of course. Did anyone receive a student loan that was enough to pay for books, supplies and have a little extra left over for living? It's been so long since DH had a student loan, I can't remember anything about that. I would still work part-time, of course, but that wouldn't put food on the table. I just can't stay in this proffession anymore, have to do something to get out of ...

I am 3/4 through the Andrew's coding course and it is HARD!!! Sometimes I think I wish I went into nursing. A 2-year degree and you can start (in my area at least) at 30 an hour. With coding, at my local hospital, they start at 26 an hour for inpatient coders, BUT you need experience! I feel it may take me a few years to get up to the pay rate of 26/hour, and in between I will have to go back to school to learn ICD-10 and pass even more tests. AND, by the time I am ...

are at a fever pitch, as usual around the holidays. I seriously don't see how patients get any rest with all of this squealing and shrieking. ...

I just need opinions. Due to pay cuts left and right having to complete with India, micromanaging, increasingly having to compete with India for work even within the same MTSOs we work for, having to worry about our USA-only companies being sold to bigger ones that hire offshore workers, continually having great accounts only to be told "oh they're going to VR but you'll still be doing ALL the editing" only to lose your account a month later, etc, I'm just plain sick of this ...

Hoping to start a nursing program. I am 35 and have been a medical transcriptionist since graduating from high school. I would like to eventually obtain a Master's in nursing. I have been planning this for a while (almost two years), but I've been really nervous, so I have kind of put things off. I think one thing I'm nervous about is it is my first time going to college. I was trained for medical transcription at a technical school while still in hig ...

Any info on the MT home course from At Home Professions? ...

Clearly s/l "for far." I thought maybe he was saying 4th floor, but doesn't sound that way at all. Could it be some kind of specialized nursing staff for rehab? An excellent dictator - I just can't figure this bit out! ...

take medication for depression/anxiety disorders? ...

I just did a report that outlined, in great detail, something that my dad went through several years ago. He died last year and I guess with father's day coming up I am just missing him a lot. I think that was the hardest report I have ever done! I stopped in the middle of it and just lifted that patient up in prayer and asked that his family not have to go through what mine did. I miss my dad!!!! I had to stop working a few minutes early because I just can't st ...

What do your QA people actually do? I have two jobs, as I've said before. Both outsource pieces of their work and at both I wonder just what it is that the QA people do? At both I really wonder how the MT even got their job at all but I really wonder what the QA people do! At the hospital, we send the op reports out, probably 60 a day. They get done by a company owned by the former Q but they claim they're done in America. Every day we come in to 50 of t ...

Has anyone been successful in finding a non-MT job that can be done from home with benefits? I'm at 14 years in MT, and just cannot do it anymore. My daughter was sick this weekend, but of course I can't afford to put her on my insurance with what they charge and what I'm making these days. This job has turned into a complete nightmare, really need to find something else to do. ...

Hello, Im just finishing up a medical transcription course/certification program with Allied schools, and I was wondering if there are any of you MT's working from home or are most of you working in a hospital? Also have any of you done the online certifications and if you did how did you get some experience under your belt to help you with the job? I was a veterinary technician for years, so I sort of knew what I was getting into, but it has turned out to be a little mo ...

Did anyone see the home makeover with Ty Pennington Sunday night? The makeover was for a medical transcriptionist. She got a gorgeous house and the bank paid off her mortgage! ...

when I started telecommuting full time.It finally penetrated my consciousness a couple of weeks ago that every year, when it came time to renew my auto insurance policy, I used to get a call from a local agent, and we'd go over the policy, making sure there were no changes. One of the questions was always how many miles did I drive to and from work each day, along with the current odometer reading, and the estimated number of miles driven each year.I haven't gotten one of those calls i ...

I totally miss getting a huge snowstorm (like today in my area, 10 to 14 inches) and being able to call in to work to say "I can't make it in today... the roads are horrible" I am trying hard to concentrate on work today, but all I want to do is call in to work, go outside and build a huge snowman, then shovel a little, and come in and make a huge mug of hot chocolate and watch it snow. LET IT SNOW!!!! ...

now is that I would really love to tell somebody off!! Yes, I know that may sound childish, but this company has put my stress level through the roof, my blood pressure through the roof, and their BS has me so pissed off, if I were in an office where they were I would find great satisfaction in letting them have it verbally, not in writing. Yes, I would be fired on the spot, but it would be so worth it. It's just not the same when they don't have to face someone in person.& ...

Everyone says "I would love to work from home". Working from home has been having negative effects on me. I've been doing this for 12 years. I never used to have anxiety or depression. Now, I do. This job is so isolating. I'm sick and tired of staying home in my PJs. I try to get out of the house as much as possible, but little trips to the grocery store is not cutting it. I get depressed staying home all the time. I lack a social l ...

I have finished my training, but I want to work from home. Will I have to work onsite first before applying with a company that hires MTs to work at home? ...

If at-home is really that bad, then is there a better school where I stand a better chance of getting hired after I'm done? Is there some kind of course I could take to get certified so as to fill in the blanks? to teach what at-home isn't? ...

Was laid off in April. Have a couple offers from transcription companies, and one from a clinic which is part of a huge school/hospital system in our area, (which actually is through a temp agency). There are only 2 full-time NP's and a handlful of part-time NP's. The hospital job is a 45-minute drive, 1-way, in light traffic. Pay to start is $13, but if this temp goes to permanent, potential is much greater. The clinic is open M-F, 8-4, closed holidays.&n ...
