Growing numbers of nurses desire to trade in their scrubs, stethoscopes, and twelve-hour shifts for a new role that interfaces with the legal arena. In the past decade, many nursing publications and seminar brochures have contained advertisements that tempt nurses to try a new specialty of the nursing profession. These advertisements and brochures promise a career where a nurse can work from home, be independent, work full or part-time, earn a much higher salary than hospitals offer, and own their own business. Nursing is a traditional profession where nurses fulfill their need or desire to help others, but often find themselves exhausted from long hours and overtime with no energy or time left for themselves or their families. Nurses are highly skilled, usually college educated and highly knowledgeable in nursing and medical fields. Yet, nurses often perform repetitive tasks and are penalized for creativity and choosing options other than the traditional policies and procedures. Nurses are educated to use critical thinking, act independently and find creative solutions in a variety of healthcare settings, but are so often stifled by lack of management support, staff, and resources. So, they continue to take orders, and follow policies and procedures developed by management personnel. It is no small wonder that nurses are attracted to the field of legal nurse consulting where they can create their own position, develop a niche, manage a business, and be rewarded and appreciated for knowledge and hard work.
