Kentucky Health Care Programs

The Kentucky Office of Employment and Training reports that 5 out of the top 15 quickest growing occupations in Kentucky are health care related. Medical assistants top the list, with a projected growth of 61.4% by 2012. If you wish to work in medical assistance, nursing, or medical coding, you should search for degree-granting programs at certified health care institutions and nursing schools.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics claims that registered nurses are projected to create the second-largest number of new jobs among all occupations. Besides the plentiful job opportunities, nursing provides a lucrative salary; the median annual wages of registered nurses were $52,330 in 2004. If you would like to work in a clinical environment but you don't want to spend 4 years in nursing school, consider enrolling in a 1-2 year medical assistant program. Whether you want to earn a medical degree or just acquire nursing CEUs, enrolling in a health care program can greatly enhance your employability while expanding your on-the-job skills.
