Looking
for a career in the Health Care field?
GRTS's
Health Services Technology Program might be what you are looking for!
Jobs
in the health care services industry are in greater demand than ever
before. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that employment of
healthcare occupations is projected to grow 18% from 2016 to 2026 - much
faster than the average for all occupations - adding about 2.4 million
new jobs. Healthcare occupations are projected to add more jobs than any
of the other occupational groups. This projected growth is mainly due to
an aging population, leading to greater demand for healthcare services.
Job
opportunities abound for nursing aides and assistants in response to
an increasing emphasis on rehabilitation and the long-term care needs
of an increasing elderly population. In fact, the Department of Labor
projects that the increased demand for health care services, led by
the growing proportion of the elderly population, is expected to
continue for a full 50 years!
Modern
medical technology will also increase the employment of nursing aides,
because as technology saves and extends more lives, it increases the
need for long-term care.
