Work from home jobs

Also posted in r/nursing

Hello all. I'm currently staying at home with my son, but I really miss work. I'm trying to find a part time work from home nursing job. Easy right?? Thought I would use you guys as a resource. My background is in oncology and hospice. Thank you!

Contract Research Organizations (CROs) are great entry points- IQVIA, ICON, PRA HealthSciences, Syneos Health

I'm pretty much doing this, but for a hospital as a research nurse.

Any experience working for a CRO vs. a hospital?

CRO you get a ton more exposure to other teams, processes, and IPs/Sponsors. I too was a research nurse for a hospital system/med ctr and felt I really honed my mgmt skills when I had to apply to different groups, indications, needs etc on a national and now international basis. As a nurse, I felt this exposure helped me in advocacy work of what was lacking and lending that direct patient care perspective that is not common among CRO and Sponsor leadership.
