Have you ever wanted to work in the healthcare field? Employment in healthcare occupations is projected to grow 16 percent from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations, adding about 2.6 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.
