subject: Medical Transcription At Home Jobs Will Help You Too [print this page] My husband is going through a mid-life crisisMy husband is going through a mid-life crisis. He met a younger woman at work and now we are going through a divorce so he can be with his "soul mate". After 37 years of marriage, it is imperative that I find a career that will make me feel like I'm doing something worthwhile and is interesting. I think that hearing and transcribing the different reports, notes, and studies would be extremely interesting and educational. Another advantage to this career path would be that it can pay well. I need to be able to support myself. I believe that becoming a medical transcriptionist would fulfill my needs. The flexibility to work from home is a huge advantage especially since I plan to move from Arizona where there is no significant winter to New Hampshire which has severe winters. Since I've forgotten how to drive in the snow and ice, the ability to work from home would be a literal life saver. The advantage of being able to work my own schedule is also important. I'm moving to be near my mother who is 90 years old. She is in excellent health but I need to be able to give her time and attend to her needs if her health changes but still be able to support myself and earn an income. SN:0TG9Y2ESY
I wanted to find home typist jobs and when I was looking for medical transcription at home jobs, I found that Future MT's training course is geared to training someone like me who has no prior experience in the field. Taking the course at my own pace is a plus since I've been out of the work force for some time. One thing that impressed me is that MT uses actual physician's dictation instead of an actor. The voice patterns and noise background would present a realistic dictation and therefore better preparation for the actual job. I believe that grouping the dictations by medical specialty is an excellent way to have the student learn each department's medical terms and procedures and differentiate between the specialties. The access to their staff to answer questions or give assistance is a wonderful benefit. It helps the student feel that they are not alone with no one at the end of their computer. Finally, at the completion of the course, the access to The Job Assistance Department is a most welcome advantage rather than finishing the course and not knowing how to proceed next to get a job and use the training that was just completed. I plan to work as an MT for quite a few years in the future. I would like to stay on top of the business and keep learning. Eventually I believe I would like to expand my horizons and start my own business. It's great that there are these options in this career field. It's not a boring dead end job with no future. That is very uplifting and builds confidence in a person. The more confidence a person has the higher they can reach to achieve their goals.
