What are good Healthcare Jobs?
Asked by Mandy82
I'm not very happy with my current job and am thinking about going back to school. I have a Bachelors Degree and have been working for about two years years now. What are good jobs to consider from the Healthcare Field that would not require a four degree and are going to be needed in the future?

Best Answer:
Shortest training: 1) Nursing: There are accelerated nursing programs set up so you can get your Nursing degree in 12-18 months if you already have a bachelors degree. Nurses make about $50,000 a year. http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos083.htm Rest need 2 year associate degrees: 2) Physician assistants need at least a 2 year degree and make about $69,410 a year. http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos081.htm 3) Nuclear Medicine Technologists: If you already have a degree, you can get a 2 year certificate or associate degree. Annual Pay: $56,000 http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos104.htm 4) Diagnostic medical sonographers need a 2 year associate degree and make $52,490 a year. http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos273.htm 5) Radiology tech's usually need a 2 year associate degree and make about $43,000 a year. http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos105.htm Good luck!

The field is always in need of administrators...HCA is a hot field.... The big money and most rewarding work in my opinion is as a PA....They are in huge demand and do important work in understaffed areas......

For a thorough review of health care positions, outlook, requirements, etc, you should take a look at U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics Career Guide to Industries Healthcare Industry - http://www.bls.gov/oco/cg/cgs035.htm As the largest industry in 2004, health care provided 13.5 million jobs—13.1 million jobs for wage and salary workers and about 411,000 jobs for the self-employed. 8 out of 20 occupations projected to grow the fastest are in health care. More new wage and salary jobs—about 19 percent, or 3.6 million—created between 2004 and 2014 will be in health care than in any other industry. Most workers have jobs that require less than 4 years of college education, but health diagnosing and treating practitioners are among the most educated workers.
