Can You Describe Some Challenges You Had To Overcome

http://www.nursingentrepreneurs.com/challenges 

Can you describe some challenges you had to overcome in starting your business? Leaving a W2 employer in health care was scary. Overcoming personal/mental blocks of the unknown were the biggest challenge starting out.

Can you describe some challenges you had to overcome in starting your business? Finding time to learn/grow outside of full time work and family as well as extra money needed for setting up a website, email, developing course, etc.

Heather Willems, RN, BSN, The Work At Home Nurse:"After starting a family of my own, I began my search for other options away from the bedside and started my work at home nurse role over nine years ago.
After answering the same questions, I started the Work at Home Nurse to help more nurse moms who are looking for the same flexibility and more time with their family by working from home and created a mini course to help address and answer these common questions.
I also know many nurses are looking for extra money, and I share affiliates that I love, that help others, and help create an additional income stream which is needed now more than ever. Over these past several years, most extra time has been spent getting involved to create change and turn the tide to fight for medical freedom, informed consent, and patient advocacy. I also joined the FLCCC Alliance as a nurse in 2021 to help patients seeking resources and information in fighting Covid, as well as the Nurse Freedom Network to to advocate for medical freedom and informed consent for all.
I've recently completed the Functional Medicine for Nurses course offered by Melissa Screibfeder and look forward to helping others as a functional medicine nurse as well as through Remnant Nursing!"

Can you describe some challenges you had to overcome in starting your business? Tech challenges, mindset issues like imposter syndrome, shame, embarrassment from putting myself out there, fear, specifically of failing or not making enough as the breadwinner

Nena Hart MSN, RN, Hart Healthcare Solutions:"I started as a nurse’s aide at 18 and worked my way up to a director of nursing to improve the quality of care for patients and working conditions for staff. I transitioned to hospice as on-call then case manager and worked my way up to director, area director and administrator, vice president and then national utilization manager of DME. I’ve been married for 18 years have 4 children and I live in Hawaii. I was so committed to high performance in my corporate role that I really strained and devalued my marriage. I had to really evaluate my priorities and my pride and change my attitude. My husband is my biggest supporter, and I am fortunate he is so forgiving. Today we are doing great and my marriage takes priority over everything else. Two years ago, I was recruited to a CEO position in Hawaii and was fired 5 weeks later with no reason. That is how I was finally able to start my consulting business." PO Box 630580 Lanai City HI 93763

Brenda Sammy, MSN RN @SkinnyNurses:"She graduated from nursing school in 1976 and with the exception of about 3 years, she has always worked as a nurse. Eight months after graduation, she joined the US Army and served a total of 25 years (10 years active and 15 years in the reserves with an 11 year break to raise her two sons). Over her 37 year nursing career, she held various positions to include staff nurse, charge nurse, nurse manager, nurse educator, nurse recruiter, nurse case manager, nurse coordinator of support to caregivers of severely injured combat veterans, and health coach. Early in her career, she realized that she enjoyed making order out of chaos and realized that nurses needed a nurse leader who would advocate for them. She became passionate about fighting for what was right to be able to give quality care. There were times she was so verbal as a nurse manager, fighting for the staff nurses to have what they needed for patient care, that she was labeled by the administrators as a trouble maker and union organizer. "It could not have been further from the truth having grown up in a blue collar family where I saw my family suffer every time my father went out on strike. Fortunately, what the administrators thought about me was never important, if I could get what my staff needed."

Donna M. Post, RN, BSN, MBA: What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing? I am in general always concerned about humanity and life. However, I was considering other fields until I discovered that nursing was a profession that required extensive knowledge and skill and that through this I would be able to be an advocate for quality healthcare. I made that decision 25 years ago without any regrets.

Qualities and traits that make Nurses qualified to operate their own business include strong communication skills, their attention to detail, ability to multitask, being flexible and adaptable under pressure (CODE BLUE), and being empathic and compassionate.

Your most pressing concerns with the profession and healthcare: The most pressing concern is the increased demand on health care providers in an environment when reimbursement is shrinking.

How do you feel Babyboomers entering the healthcare system, and nurses (Babyboomers themselves) retiring in droves, will affect patient care? This is a complex issue with both positive and negative aspects. Baby boomers will lead to an increased demand on the healthcare system which can in turn lead to longer wait times, increased workload for healthcare providers, and gaps in care for select patient populations.

However as more Baby Boomer nurses retire it will create opportunity for new nurses to step up into leadership opportunities.

To address the negative aspect, healthcare organizations should invest in new technologies and strategies to deliver health care more efficiently and also provide incentives to retain experienced nurses while attracting new ones to the profession.

Other areas of interest and expertise: Chris is into real estate, love to travel.

Rare Courage: Standing For Right When You're Surrounded by Wrong By Jodi O'Malley, MSN, RN
https://www.jodiomalleyrn.com/product-page/rare-courage-paperback-book

Unveiling the truth and corruption taken place in a federal hospital for Native Americans. Follow the story of Project Veritas HHS Vaccine Nurse Whistleblower, Jodi O’Malley as she takes you through her journey with Covid and how her faith got her through it all.


PHOENIX, AZ- With Rare Courage, journey through one nurse's Covid pandemic experience as she navigates her way through the federal hospital system and struggles to advocate for Native Americans in need of health care.


In this nonfiction narrative, O'Malley clearly outlines how fear based propaganda messaging ushered in ethical dilemmas and unscientific protocols such as:

    Faulty testing

    Harmful quarantine & isolation measures

    Absurd PPE protocols

    Removal of the advocate from bedside

    Detrimental hospital policies

    Incentivized medicine

    Lack of informed consent

    Refusal of early treatment


You’ll experience the struggles of navigating pandemic policies, fighting for patient safety, and ethical principles ultimately believing in faith, opposed to living in fear. Through submission to God’s will, that deepened their relationship, she asked Him to show her the way and she obeyed.


Foreword by Dr. Peter A. McCullough, MD, MP

In the setting of a crisis, the rarity of courage cannot be overstated.  We have seen this throughout the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.  Compassion, critical thinking, and careful re-evaluation  were thrown out the windows of hospitals as mass panic and  government bribes ushered in nihilistic protocols and horrific  new standards of care resulting in deadly outcomes for patients  who were denied early home treatment and found themselves hospitalized with COVID-19.

Jodi O’Malley is a mother, nurse, heroine, and patriot who would not stand by and let SARS-CoV-2 slaughter her patients.  She set out to tell the world what really happened inside of hospitals in this gripping account of her nursing career during the pandemic. With the strength of a lioness, she risked it all  and paid the professional price for blowing the whistle on wrongdoing and exposing the corruption, lies, and malfeasance within hospital and nursing administrations. 

In this masterful work of nonfiction, O’Malley tells the world the truth when millions of nurses are complicit or too frightened to stand up for their patients to this day. We can all take heart in the odyssey of Jodi O’Malley and the rare courage she displayed while standing for right when she was surrounded by wrong.

Heather Willems, RN, BSN, Wisconsin Nurses, Nursing Entrepreneurs, Nurse-Owned Businesses

Heather Willems, RN, BSN, Wisconsin Nurses, Nursing Entrepreneurs, Nurse-Owned Businesses

The Shortcut URL To This Section Is: http://www.nursefriendly.com/willems

Your Name, Degrees Licenses (Nursing and non-nursing degrees/licenses are fine to list): Heather Willems, RN, BSN

Can you tell us a bit about yourself? I grew up in GA where I also attended nursing school and moved to Wisconsin over 15 years ago after meeting my husband who was born and raised here. I have been an RN for nearly 25 years. My husband and I have been married for 13 years and have two boys who stay active with sports, so if we aren't at work or at home, you can find us cheering them on at their soccer and basketball games! We also volunteer with our boys' Catholic school and our church in our spare time.

What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing? My desire and dream was always to help others and to help someone who is hurting to feel better.

What is your experience and background in Nursing?: I have been an RN for nearly 25 years with a background in PACU, then transitioning to the clinic working for a pulmonologist and sleep medicine specialist for 5 years. I then transitioned to working remotely for the past nine years performing claims reviews and as a nurse auditor for fraud, waste, abuse.

Would you recommend Nursing as a career? For younger nurses, I would tell them that nursing is a great career and your license can open so many doors for other options in the future! However, critical thinking must be encouraged and following the Nightingale Pledge. For women who may want to start a family in the future, I would encourage them to think outside the box of options away from the bedside once they start a family. Working full time with young children is a common struggle to juggle work and family life, and full time bedside nursing can get harder physically and mentally as we get older.

Your Business Name (if applicable): No official business name or LLC yet

Please describe in detail your business/services you provide (or if you have an elevator pitch ): After starting a family of my own, I began my search for other options away from the bedside and started my work at home nurse role over nine years ago.

After answering the same questions, I started the Work at Home Nurse to help more nurse moms who are looking for the same flexibility and more time with their family by working from home and created a mini course to help address and answer these common questions.

I also know many nurses are looking for extra money, and I share affiliates that I love, that help others, and help create an additional income stream which is needed now more than ever. Over these past several years, most extra time has been spent getting involved to create change and turn the tide to fight for medical freedom, informed consent, and patient advocacy. I also joined the FLCCC Alliance as a nurse in 2021 to help patients seeking resources and information in fighting Covid, as well as the Nurse Freedom Network to to advocate for medical freedom and informed consent for all.

I've recently completed the Functional Medicine for Nurses course offered by Melissa Screibfeder and look forward to helping others as a functional medicine nurse as well as through Remnant Nursing!

In what date (month/year) did you start your business? April 2021

Did you originally have a formal Business Plan? No

Can you describe some challenges you had to overcome in starting your business? Finding time to learn/grow outside of full time work and family as well as extra money needed for setting up a website, email, developing course, etc.

How did you hear about the Nursefriendly, NursingEntrepreneurs.com?: Andrew Lopez

The year were you first licensed as a nurse? 1998

What school(s) of nursing did you attend? Emory University

Do you recommend that nurses join professional organizations? I have never been active, however I have been encouraged by my local state representative and senator, that if we want our voices to be heard, we need to join these organizations! Adding to my to do list for 2023!

Professional organizations you have belonged to (now or in the past, please spell out the full name): None

What made you decide to start your own business? To help other nurses looking for alternative roles away from the bedside. To inspire and help nurses. Also aligning with affiliates that align with my values, help others with their health and wellness, and help build an additional stream of income which is more important than ever. Next is to focus on helping patients who are seeking alternatives for help outside of traditional care as a functional medicine nurse and with Remnant Nursing.

How many times have you changed employers in your career? 5

What specific qualities and traits do you feel make nurses especially qualified to operate a business? Many nurses are natural born leaders, problem solvers and helpers! So once we identify the problem area that we have experience in, there are so many options we have as nurses to run a business and help others away from the bedside! We also are part of changing the tide to help patients who are not getting help in the traditional healthcare system by helping as nurse advocates.

What exactly is a nurse entrepreneur in your own words? A nurse who no longer feels tied to the traditional bedside setting and employee mindset. A nurse who wants to be in charge of his/her own schedule and flourish in helping others while fulfilling their true calling to help others with their own God given talents.

Do you currently practice as a nurse? If yes in what type of setting? Yes, full time working remotely/work at home.

Your most pressing concerns with the profession and healthcare: Burnout, moral injury, lack of critical thinking, nursing shortage, mandate, decreased advocacy for patients and medical freedom, and lack of involvement at a local level.

How do you feel Babyboomers entering the healthcare system, and nurses (Babyboomers themselves) retiring in droves, will affect patient care? Patient care is going to continue to decline both due to shortages, aging population, as well as due to current education nurses are receiving until we have a paradigm shift in healthcare and nursing.

Other areas of interest and expertise (Andrew's into photography, loves to travel): Spending time with friends and family. I do love travel and hope to do more in the next few years! Music. Volunteering at our boys' school and with the church. I love helping women with health challenges, especially over 40, after overcoming my own health struggles as I have gotten older. Functional medicine has helped me so much!
