The healthcare industry represents a growth area for those looking for a career with excellent job prospects in the region. According to a 2019 report on significant industries in the Hudson Valley written by the Bureau of Labor Market Information, an aging population has helped fuel a demand for health care specialists. Employment in ambulatory health care services, up 5,500 between 2013 and 2018, accounted for more than half of the new jobs in health care over the period. Job growth in the hospitals industry was up 4,800 over the same period.
