Healthcare jobs such as Registered Nurses, LPN’s, LVN’s and related Medical Technicians provide over 15 million jobs, and ten of the 20 fastest growing occupations are healthcare-related. Most healthcare workers have jobs that require less than 4 years of college education, such as health technologists and technicians, medical records, billing and coding, health information technicians, surgeons, diagnostic medical sonographers, radiologic technologists and technicians, and dental hygienists. As people age, they have more medical problems, and hospitals will require more staff. Wages vary by the employer and area of the county.
