Is Healthcare Still a Promising Field?

I am very, very concerned that we, as a society, are not proactively training the newer grads and taking them in and preparing for the 2015 exfiltration of nurses.

I am very concerned that ALL of this hiring freezes, mandatory vaccinations and poor treatment of the newer nurses will hurt and bite them all in the end.

I cannot understand our and lack of preparation. I just don't get it.

I am one of many that is going to say, "I told you so."

I recently got my CNA because I want to go into nursing eventually, and I enjoy working with the elderly.

However, I see far too many people feeling from corporate jobs into healthcare right now, just because they can't get hired in the business world right now (recession going on). This is all wrong. Some of these people lack compassion and are simply in this for the money. They dislike their patients - are even rude to their patients. And they carry the corporate mentality with them into healthcare, and it just doesn't jive very well, corporate ethics and healthcare ethics are two different things. In healthcare, the bottom line is patient health and well being. In corporate America, bottom line is money and profits. I would like to urge these people to get out of healthcare, they just don't belong
