I also was in a direct patient care role for many years before obtaining an MBA, moving into a leadership (operational) role, and then using the skills learned to be able to land a job in project/program management. The other suggestion would be to look at EMR implementation work (can be the liaison between clinical people and the IT folks doing the actual build). Just make sure to focus on what makes you different than others - having a clinical background and leadership knowledge (or in your case, PM certification) is surprisingly unique in healthcare administration.
