Health Care Jobs Recession Proof

Nursing students and educators are among the best careers when facing the current recession.  While manufacturing and retail jobs are disappearing, health care demand continues to increase according to one career counselor cited in this article.

New health care jobs are required to meet the demands left by retiring nurses and the increasing numbers of aging baby boomers needing medical attention.  Colleges are ramping up the numbers in their programs to meet the demand.

There is also a shortage of qualified nurse educators to train the new nurses.  Experienced and retiring nurses may be useful in filling the void in instructor positions but there is a need for trained educator, too!
