| | Health Care |
| | Health care workers also are more likely to remain employed in the same occupation, due, in part, to the high level of education and training required for many health occupations. | | | Employment in home health care and nursing and residential care should increase rapidly as life expectancies rise, and as aging children are less able to care for their parents and rely more on long-term care facilities. | | | Persons considering careers in health care should have a strong desire to help others, genuine concern for the welfare of patients and clients, and an ability to deal with people of diverse backgrounds in stressful situations. |
