An exciting, yet somewhat frightening career alternative for nurses, is business ownership.

Nurses are often risk takers, that demonstrate confidence, ambition, and a sense of personal accomplishment and can easily channel their expertise into personal, financial, and professional success.

that any business owner uses.
An Independent Nurse Contractor contracts with a healthcare facility to provide nursing services, usually by the hour. An Independent contractor can contract his or her nursing services directly with a healthcare facility or with a patient and continue bedside practice. The contract is similar to those used by nursing agencies and travel companies outlining the services to be provided, the


responsibilities of both the healthcare facility and the nurse, and the length of time the services are to be provided.

Nurse Contractors practice in all aspects of the Healthcare Industry; Home Health, Nursing Homes, Hospitals, Rehab. Centers, Doctors Offices and all aspects of Nurse Consulting just to name a few. No advance degrees are necessary unless your business includes diagnosing and treating medical problems.
State nurse practice acts for registered nurses do not prohibit independent contracting, consulting, entrepreneurship, or small businesses ownership.

About the author:
My Name is Tammie Mericle and I have been practicing as a RN for 14 years with the last several years as an Independent Nurse Contractor. I’ve worked in a variety of fields;pediatrics, med-surg., home health, emergency room, critical care. I absolutely love nursing but am not all that crazy about all the pay & politics. I worked as a Traveling nurse and then decided to cut out the middleman and am now practicing as an Independent Nurse Contractor working all of my contracts in hospital settings. It has been such a great change but along the way I discovered that many nurse were not that familiar with the process. Many were interested but had no idea where to start.
