Why is there an increased need for people to fill jobs in the medical field?
According to the Michigan.gov, there is a very high demand for people to fill positions in the medical field. For example, in the time span of 2012-2022, they need over 327,000 people to fill pharmacist positions (Health Careers - In-Demand Professions). This poses a problem because there are not enough people to fill the positions. Also, there are a lot of people who are retiring and not enough people to train people in certain positions. Many factors come in to play when people decide to choose a position in the medical field. Job market, education, and income are all factors which may influence a person’s choice to pursue a career in the medical field.
