If you are thinking about a healthcare career but aren’t sure, one of the first things you’re probably thinking is how much money can we make as care staffing professionals?

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Healthcare Jobs are projected to grow 15% between now and 2029,  much faster than average for all other occupations nearly 3.3% times the average growth rate for all other occupations and of the 10 fastest-growing jobs in the U.S., 6.5 are in Healthcare & Medical staffing Field.

The COVID-19 pandemic also be a motivating factor in the growth. Along with Covid-19 an aging American population is projected to drive a surge in a diversity of healthcare jobs: nursing aides, physical therapist assistants, physician assistants, nurse practitioners. There’s opportunity in healthcare sector across the spectrum of educational paths.

The majority of the highest-paying occupations are in healthcare. Psychiatrists and anesthesiologists typically earn over $300,000 per year. Like all doctors, these specialists must complete at least 11 years of postsecondary education and training. That’s nearly three times the average growth rate for all other occupations.
