You have to market yourself to firms that specialize in medical malpractice, who might hire in-house nurses to review cases, but also to any firm that does personal injury work. They will have need for a consultant if and when they take a malpractice or medical negligence case.


I'm not a nurse consultant, but a consulting attorney with an RN license. Any consulting business is a matter of networking and letting all the potential clients know you're out there, and can do the job for them.

Hi!


Actually I retired from State service where I was a managing attorney for the Dept of Health & Senior Services, Enforcement unit. But I have practiced trial law, and also hand-on nursing. Now I just have the consulting business - mostly for nursing homes & assisted living facilities, helping them achieve compliance with state & federal regulations.

A Certified Legal Nurse Consultant is in much demand nowadays, what with medical related cases on the rise. Lucrative Legal Nurse Consultant Jobs are available to the Registered Nurse, who wants to develop a consulting practice that is quite different from the hands-on care she has been used to as a RN.


This particular job entails more of research and advising a lawyer / attorney about medical oriented talk.


A guide to legal nurse consultant jobs is available at http://www.usa-jobs-forever.com/legal-nurse-consultant-jobs.html


Hope this helps!

From what I have read and seen, many of these programs are online, and can be also taken in seminars like a week intensive training, etc.

Most courses are between 6 to 10 days and cost in the range of $4000 to $13000. If you search online, you will surely find a good course that fits in with your schedule and budget.

 It's expensive at first, however once you are a certified LNC you can make over $60/hour working from home.


I know a couple of LNC in Florida who have joined American Nurses Union, their website is www.americannursesunion.com


They work remotely and get to advocate on behalf of nurses.
