I worked in educational publishing for years before dd was born. I continued freelancing in the field since then, and still do a little work here and there, but mostly I run a web toy store now. People with experience writing medical/healthcare stuff seem to be pretty highly sought after. Two good resources are:
www.mediabistro.com (you have to register to see their jobs page), which has great info on full-time/part-time/freelance projects, and
www.writersdigest.com, which has good info if you want to write articles and pitch them to magazines.
In my experience, pitching is much harder, but some people love it. It does offer more flexibility, since you can send out as many or as few pitches as you like.
