Teleworking is the new wave, even for PMHNPs!
Reasons I LOVE working from home:
1️⃣. Saves money for my patient AND me.
The patient saves on gas or travel& possibly having to miss or take off from work. I save on these costs and also reduce my overhead by not having a physical office I travel to 5 days per week.
2️⃣. Being able to see clients in their TRUE element.
This is extremely helpful when diagnosing conditions such as obsessive compulsive disorder, major depressive disorder, etc. I have seen things in a clients’ home that I would have never seen in office!
3️⃣. Allowing patients to see the ‘human’ side of me.
I’m not just a person that hands you your medication. I actually CARE about the work I do. I love to show my patients my dog (Gunner)… and I couldn’t do that in an office 😩.
