By that definition, healthcare careers do not just include doctors, nurses, and other frontline clinicians who often come to mind first when people think of healthcare jobs. Administrators, therapists, chiropractors, paramedics, and technology professionals all have a place in helping people live well.
Due to its size and diversity, healthcare welcomes new professionals with many different skills, interests, and personalities. In general, people who work in this sector have hearts to serve others and intellectual interests in math and science.

Students can earn certifications in high-demand fields such as EKG tech and cardio-phlebotomy tech in about 10-21 weeks. Prospective healthcare professionals can learn more about careers and degrees.
Healthcare professionals enjoy opportunities in clinical work, therapy, leadership, and public health. Responsibilities, activities, and pay grades vary tremendously, meaning the industry welcomes new professionals with diverse skill sets.
