"Growing industries, such as administrative and support services; health care and social assistance will continue to generate the most new jobs." -- U.S.BLS 2009

Enjoy the healthcare field but don't like the hands-on clinical aspect, understand medical language and number codes, are detail oriented and meticulous when it comes to their work, know the principles of the computer and how to find answers to problems, or like helping people but prefer to work indepen- dently away from the public's eye.
