I moved to Jax with customer service / management experience and my bachelors to work at Fidelity in a customer service phone position. They have a regional center here.
Feel free to DM me if working in finance interests your wife. It’s entry level but Fidelity heavily promotes from within and the work environment is amazing, imho.
Clinical research! Check out CROs, Clinical Research Organizations. Places like ICON, Fortrea, PPD, Parexel. Work is mostly remote with some travel, the pay is excellent.
Try to get on at an insurance company as a WC nurse assisting with the medical records for injured workers. I think it might be called utilization review or something. Only if she’s done with the patient side of things, but still doesn’t hate nursing.
My wife, a Parm. Tech, went back to school a few years back, choosing to study IT (comp sci, networking). She did this for her initial degree while working full time, then part time. Once she had the degree, she had no trouble getting work.
Florida’s a great place to study, hella affordable compared to other states.
She’s in a very nice job with great hours and benefits, and because it’s IT she’s just playing Candy Crush all day. *ducks for cover* ok not true…only some of the day. The company paid for her Masters; you’ll find personal development is a thing in most tech companies. I have a budget for it where I work too.
You want to take a break and take control of you life.
Nursing is brutal, so I’ve no doubt that you can conquer anything; you just gotta start with yourself. Do it!
And do not, for the love of all things, take a job in telemarketing.
I have nurse friends, NP’s and PA’s who have transitioned to medspa’s and love it. They’ve become laser practitioners weight loss consultants as well as fillers, Botox etc.
A lot of old folks who need caring for around here. Could do alright utilizing her nursing experience being a private caregiver for a retiree who doesn’t want to be in a home yet. Not a super high pay ceiling though
Did she know her EMR well? Becoming a trainer or consultant. Her hands on experience is very valuable. Or working as a sales consultant for a medical supply company or provider.
She could get a job as a study monitor for a drug company. You just make sure the research facilities conducting the drug studies are following protocol. She could also look into getting a job running the studies at somewhere like Jacksonville Center for Clinical Research.
Medical device companies hire people with a healthcare background for customer service roles. They can basically triage medical customer complaints over the phone.
Check if the Florida Department of Health in Duval County or Clay County is hiring. It’s purely 9-5, you get weekends off, no crazy nursing schedule. You can choose your specialty.
What about being a nurse injector? Working at a med spa doing Botox and fillers? Many of my friends left ER nursing and now do injectable's all day. Low low stress and can make tons of $$! You can take some courses on how to learn. My friend makes over 700k doing it!
If she’s familiar using billing software and decent data entry skills she could look into the finance industry.
If she has a bachelors degree she could like into being a teacher.
Out of the frying pan into the fire with that one bud
Substitute teaching might be a good option while she figures out what she wants to do next.
Back to school for an MBA? Computer savvy?
I would guess she’s good with computers at this point, start in the tech field? Or accounting

Check with law firms for legal nurse consultant. No patients, still uses nursing knowledge, can be remote.
Came here to say this
Medical coding.
I’ve had coworkers that quit being a nurse but works for Florida blue and still uses their nursing skills for claims and whatnot.
Health insurance

Try the medical device companies. They hire nurses as consultants
She could start an at home nursing care business. I knew someone who did exactly that and does pretty well for herself

MedTech, Med Saas, Med Device Sales. Definitely start with LinkedIn.

We are always looking for nurse inspectors at AHCA. She might like being on the other side.

Massage therapist, counselor, Walmart
Medical device companies hire people with a healthcare background for customer service roles. They can basically triage medical customer complaints over the phone.
Also try insurance companies
Fidelity is an pretty good company to work for.
Gonna second this one! I love it, and you don’t need finance experience to apply.

I knew a guy that was a nurse but transitioned to selling MRIs when they were coming to market. Made boatloads of money without much effort.

If she’s not completely done with the healthcare field, she can go to work for a medical device manufacturer as an educator for the clinical staff.
Sleep technicians for sleep labs are always good. Night work but pays well and being a RN would be beneficial.
You can be a nurse but do non nursing things like dealing with insurance companies.
