Get Rich Being A Nurse? by Kip DWarning! If you do not want to work don't
go to school to become a Licensed Practical Nurse. It sounds bad when I
say it that way but actually it's a good thing. If you are the sort of person
who likes to help people and you have a strong stomach then you will always
have a well paying job.Why do I say that? Well the thing is a nurse; especially
LPNs and LPs are needed in just about every aspect of the healthcare industry.
With our baby boomer generation getting older the hospitals and nursing
homes over the next decade will become more
more crowded. Of course along with the growth in patients there will be
a growth in the need for health care professionals to care for the sick
and elderly.Besides the general nursing area there are still many other
jobs for LPNs and CPNs. There is a huge need for in home health care professionals
willing to deal with the elderly. Other areas LPNs are needed include physician's
offices,
residential care facilities, schools, temporary nurse agencies, traveling
nurse agencies and government agencies. As you can see the choices for a
place to work are not few and far between.So besides the many choices of
places and ways to work as a nurse why is the nursing profession expected
to grow so much? The truth is the insurance industry and Medicaid has left
no other avenue.
As baby boomers grow older someone has to take care of them. The important
fact here is that insurance companies and Medicaid except in isolated instances
doesn't cover the cost of assisted living or of home-based health care.
The average cost for home-based or assisted living is around $35,000 annually.
So if Medicaid and insurance aren't going to pay the costs then who is?
The sad truth is that many families who wish to care for there parents or
siblings simply can't afford to and are forced to put there elderly into
a long term care facility Click here
for the rest.
