I went to

North Dakota State College of Science for transcription and coding and did it all at home on-line. I had already gone to school for my LPN, so I had some of the classes under my belt to begin with, but it was sure a stressful time for me! My youngest at the time were 1 and 2. I was fortunate to get hired right out of school with Medquist (not there anymore). I have always done a split shift thing to help with breaking up the day and dealing with the kids, so some early in the morning and some in the evening, but this does make a long day for mom. I have never been sorry that I made the career change, however. I would do it again tomorrow. It is not easy though, not at all, and most days I feel a little haggered when it is all said and done. Looking down the road, though, the flexibility is great when the kids get in school. I never miss a program or meeting or special things. The flexibility is more than any job I have ever had and that means a lot for me. The wages are also good...at least I think so... especially when you consider no communting, lunches, special work clothes, etc. I live in a small rural community, so the wages are not real great here anyway. I definately make more at this than I ever would going back into nursing. Anyhow, good luck!
