Starting a laceration, newborn consulting, pediatric practice
Hi everyone! I’m trying to get a concept for my own in home pediatric private practice, lactation services and newborn coaching/consulting practice. I’m am a pediatric nurse practitioner with 21 years total health care experience (16 as a NICU/pediatrics RN) and 5 as a pediatric nurse practitioner in both urgent care and the ER as well as primary care. I would like to branch out and do my own thing but I have no idea how to get started
The price of healthcare in this country and cuts to insurance are despicable. I want to increase access while keeping it affordable. I am sitting for my lactation consultant boards in September. In the interim I would offer free lactation services as I’m not an actual ibclc. However, as part of being a lactation client for a small fee per month you could have full access to me as a PNP. Things like is this normal or what do I do etc. thoughts? I was thinking 75 to 100 dollars per month access to have 24/7 access to me. Does that sound reasonable? I would like to expand to include overnight nurse in the newborn phase as well as sick and well visits in your home. I’m curious what yall would pay for these services. And, of course, if someone needs my help but truly can’t afford it I would help anyway. Let me know what u think but please be kind
