Is Nursing Still A Good Career?

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

April 15 2008 (Tax Day).  Taking a quick scan of the Google Nursing Headlines I am looking at the quality health care job news. Nursing seems to be a good career if you are located in the USA.

 

THE WSJ reports that between 1998 and 2007, the Bangor metropolitan area (pop. 150,000) lost about 3,700 jobs in manufacturing, but gained 3,500 jobs in health care.

 

Yet in Canada

 Toronto - Seventy-two nursing jobs will be cut from Ajax and Pickering Hospital and Centenary Hospital, in an effort to slash $25 million over the next three years.

At the present time I have several Canadian friends that are currently enrolled in nursing programs. They all plan on moving to the US.  Any thoughts? I promise to research the topic more as I look for material.
