Wanted to introduce myself. My name is Cathy Pepe. I'ma NJ CSR, or I should say used to be. I reported a couple of years ago and now am a patient coordinator for a plastic surgery/dermatology center in Livingston, NJ. I absolutely love my job but miss the world of court reporting and I definitely miss the income. I'm thinking of can I still be a part of court reporting but still keep my day job. I'm thinking of proofreading part-time from home. I see that you do this and it seems as though you really enjoy it. Do you think that I can do this and can you give me some advice of how I can do this? What is the difference between a scopist and proofreader?

When you do medical transcription, how does that work? They send you tapes and you use your steno machine, can you give me some details on how to get started?

Happy Birthday Stephanie!
