One of the fastest growing areas of employment today is the field of medical careers. As more people become aware of health in general, and show concern for the state of their own current and future health, the demand for professionals in this field increases. The demand for health professionals is also increasing due to the fact that the nation’s largest population, the baby boom generation, is rapidly approaching old age. As more of these citizens need constant or increased care and supervision, growth will occur exponentially between 2002 and 2012 (around 16.3 for all areas of the industry), especially in the areas of nursing home workers (35%), and home health care aides (56%).
