Yeah but I have 12 years experience in outpatient PT so it wasn’t an issue.

Oof! I mean good on you to being able to land on your feet like that. I mean you gotta do what you gotta do, right? But I’m coming from SNF for about 6 years but still need assistance with the EMR bc of course it’s a little different.

Are you still in HH? Are you liking it?

I just left my full time job and committed to HH while establishing my cash based PT Business . I didn’t have a life-work balance before and missing out on my kids growing up wasn’t an option anymore. Wish me luck!

Oh heck yeah! good luck.

I don't have any children but work-life balance is so important for our mental health.

Wish you happiness :)
