Job Opportunities

In recent years the increased number of hospital patients and nursing home residents has resulted in a greater need for qualified Nurse’s Assistants. The United States government passed legislation in 1989, which has greatly affected health care in nursing homes. New York State now requires nurses assistants to attend a state approved Nurses Assistants program.

Advanced technology means that more lives are saved. Although life is maintained, some of these individuals will need continuing health care.
