Texas Nursing and Health Care Schools
According to the Texas Workforce Commission, The Lone Star State's health care industry is thriving, employing more than one million people in 2004. Texas health care occupations, such as registered nurses, medical and health services managers, and medical assistants have among the highest job growth rates statewide from 2004-2014.
You can enter any of these promising medical careers by getting an education in a nursing or health care program in Texas.
Texas nurses must graduate from a state-approved nursing program with either a certificate, associate's, bachelor's or master's degree. To become licensed, they must also pass a national nursing examination. There are no educational requirements for entry-level medical assistants; however, most employers prefer hiring applicants with some formal training. Medical and health services managers are required to have at least a bachelor's degree, although many positions require a master's degree or higher.
