Heath Care Education
I have an outsider’s perspective on health care employment in the USA. I have spent most of my life in Canada and I experienced a Doctor shortage that was exacerbated in part by head hunters who would come up from the USA and recruit some of our best family practitioners. There were also semi-regular job fairs put on by large HMOs that aimed to attract nurses and other professionals.
Canada’s health care system gets touted as a preferable model to that of America, but the reality for workers has been long hours and comparatively modest pay. My own family doctor, the friendly, brilliant man who gave my babies their first year of checkups, headed south. I wished him well.
Nursing is a smart career choice for young Americans as there is a need for more people at all levels in the majority of specialties. The RN Nursing Degree at Hondros College in Cincinnati is suitable for people starting out in nursing or experienced people working towards advancement. Nursing education may soon be starting on other Hondros campuses to meet demand.
