Job Outlook for Clinical Lab Technologists and Technicians Is Above Average

Tom Miyata — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 17:21:20 +0000

With increasing automation and the use of computer technology, the work of technologists and technicians has become less hands-on and more analytical. The complexity of tests performed, the level of judgment needed, and the amount of responsibility workers assume depend largely on the amount of education and experience they have. Clinical laboratory technologists usually do more complex tasks than clinical laboratory technicians do.

Employment setting is primarily in hospitals. Most of the remaining jobs are in offices of physicians and in diagnostic labs.

Growth in this field is expected to be 14 percent between now and 2016.

Healthcare Administration: A Booming Industry.

Tom Miyata — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 19:01:05 +0000

There’s never been a better time to join the healthcare industry. Half of the 20 U.S. occupations projected to grow the fastest over the next few years are in the health services fields. Employment in healthcare administration is expected to grow fastest in practitioners’ offices and in services for home healthcare. During the next decade, about 3.5 million new jobs are projected in health services (that’s about 16 percent of all new jobs total). This is higher than any other industry.
