The major reason for wanting to train in Medical Transcription it will allow me to work from home. I recently had a very bad bout with an illness and it prevented me from working. But with my illness which is psoriasis it became very difficult for me to wear clothing or be out in the cold. I am a night person and it would be good for me because I can work at night since I don’t sleep much. Hopefully with working I will be able to relax more and not worry about bills and know that my work will be done because I won’t miss any time off for illness. You see I am by profession a Stylist and Barber. Aside from that it is not good to work with people in the beauty industry when they see how your skin gets, although, they really were nice. But I know it made them uncomfortable.
I tried for awhile but I found it hard to ignore. I am now living with my daughter and she has helped me more than anyone and now she is feeling the crunch and I need to really start helping her and this would be my only way, you see I also help her with my granddaughter because she is a diabetic and my daughter works over an hour away. I am able to pick her up and be home with her if she needs anything. I also take her to her games and other things she needs to do. I am as they say the emergency person. She should be getting her license in about 3 years. By then with my training I will be able to do more for my family. I already have the computer training because I took a course at Ridley Lowell in Poughkeepsie, NY, on all the Microsoft software and can type about 60 words a minute. Still have that and use the computer all the time that’s how I found you. SN:0MA9N2ESY
I feel at some point we will be able to move to a warmer climate then I can possibly work in a Hospital or other facility. I had my own business for almost 14 years and did very well, so I could start a business and possibly help other seniors who need to supplement their income. Which I am aware is becoming more and more the normal I know some that would jump at a chance to work at something if someone would show them. On a more personnel note I have had to give up my home and have taken financial loss, due to this economy and my trust was taken advantage of with some property that I should have received funds to continue and start my own business again. I went through a divorce and had to try to start over, it was too much and then I got sick. My physician feels that being able to work at my own pace such as medical transcription at home or any other online typing job, it would not bring on my illness again which is now in remission. But they say you never get more than you can handle.
