Guest Column: Can remote CDI really work for you? Really? Really!

By Karin Killenberger, BSN, RN, CCDS
Working as a remote CDI specialist can be either totally fulfilling or a bit difficult. If you’re a people person, you will miss the camaraderie of working in the hospital setting, the ability to problem-solve by bouncing ideas off your coworkers, the gossip, and the potlucks. On the other hand, if you’re organized and self–motivated enough, enjoy peace and quiet, and prefer wearing your pajamas to work, remote might be right up your alley.
