The economic recession in the United States appears to be drawing to a close. Despite that encouraging news, the nation's economy continues to lose jobs in traditionally strong sectors such as manufacturing and construction. The health care sector, on the other hand, is adding jobs. Throughout the course of the recession, the health care industry added an average of 8,800 new jobs every month. Consequently, the industry has become known as the "recession-proof" sector of the U.S. economy where displaced workers and recession-motivated career switchers can find good-paying positions with benefits, and most important, job security.
