Woo! Medical Social Work is in the Top 50 Best Careers again
Medical and public health social workers held 138,700 jobs in 2008. Over the next decade, that figure is expected to climb faster than most careers by 31,000, or more than 22 percent, according to the Labor Department. That’s largely because of the aging of the baby boomer generation, which is beefing up the need for social workers in nursing homes and in home healthcare settings.Source: money.usnews.com
