I’m a registered nurse who currently works as a charge lead in a procedural unit and do data analysis for our STEMI program. I have 7+ years of experience in healthcare in various settings.

I’m itching for a new career that is more centered towards problem solving/quality improvement/etc.

Do you think there is a place for me in consulting? I haven’t heard of many healthcare providers transition to this, but I’m curious.

Lots of opportunity in performance improvement and quality improvement, especially if you’re familiar with budgeting and finance. Check out the healthcare consultants bowl and companies like the big 4, guidehouse, chartis, ecg, kaufman hall, and I think even A&M/Alix are hiring in healthcare.

Tailor your resume to the role and have great answers for why consulting/why firm. Good luck!

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
