Need some career advice in health care administration?I need to decide the best course of action now that I am looking for full time return to health care. A little background: I am an RN, and have a MS in health services administration. I worked in case management with Blue Cross, Citizens insurance company doing No Fault and Workers Comp, and also for a private rehab/vocational company; I also have about 8 years experience in ICU and intermediate, some home care supervision. Sounds great, right? The problem is I have a job gap: I have spent the past 12 years running my own business in a more creative line of work, and now work part time in both home care and for community mental health. Due to divorce, I need to find full time work. Because of the gap in my career track, the lack of recent experience may hurt me. I can't decide if I should hold off for a case management position or just go back full time in to home care and try advancement. At my age (50), I don't have loads of time to regain a decent salary, and it seems with 17 years of experience and a masters degree, I shouldn't have to start over. With today's job market, I am looking for current opinions on the best way to jump back in.
In response: I don't know who wrote "helpkorner", but clearly it is written by someone for who English is not a primary language! I also don't know why you recommended it. I have been a nurse for 30 years, I don't need a primer about what nursing means.....This was a serious question looking for helpful answers, please.
Thank you - I realized later it was a spammer.
What I would really like to do is run an assisted living facility - how did you get in to nursing home administration?
