Abstract:
As a nation, we are in the midst of an ongoing struggle to provide universal, equitable access to quality, cost-effective care for an increasingly diverse and aging population. We are facing the potential of major shortages of nurses and other skilled health professionals. And there is concern about who will replace highly skilled health care workers if they retire in their 50s and 60s. As the nation grapples with these challenges, several new occupations are emerging that have the potential to keep people healthier and lower costs. Many of these emerging jobs can be designed to appeal to boomers in search of encore careers, and filling them with older, experienced employees can benefit patient care.
