Health writing is not about publishing research papers or writing about your experiences as a nurse. Professional health writing involves creating a wide variety of content that’s generally published on the web. A few examples of the types of health writing that nurses and other health professionals get paid to write include:  
Consumer health articles  
Web pages  
Patient-facing blog posts  
Brochures  
Case studies  
White papers  
Industry blog posts  
Industry news articles  
Video scripts  
…and much, MUCH more!  
And in case you think you need experience writing any of those things before you can become a paid health writer, think again. Freelance writing is very much a “learn on the job” profession.  
On today’s episode of The RN2writer Show, we’re demystifying how health writing works so you can see for yourself how easy it is to get started. We’re showing you the step-by-step process of how health content gets created and published so you have confidence that you really can do this. 
Host Elizabeth Hanes, BSN RN, built a six-figure writing business in her spare time. Today, she coaches other nurses on how to become freelance writers through the RN2writer project.
