Telecommuting work for nurses

I've had researching telecommuting work for nurses on my "to do" list for some time now. While, I've found specific opportunities I never was able to identify general trends when it came to telecommuting work for nursing.

The few opportunities I did run across were for managing triage situations by phone and managing schedules.

So I was happy to find another site that posted an article called 3 Great Jobs for Nurses Who Prefer to Work at Home which shows 3 areas of potential telecommuting opportunities for nurses:

• Disease management
• Case management
• Medical transcription (medical transcription has been covered at WorkAtHomeTruth and I highly recommend you read this post about medical transcription training concerning the importance of the quality of education you receive in any formal medical transcription program).

You can see an example of a company looking for a TeleHealth Nurse Consultant here.
