As baby-boomers approach retirement age, there is a growing trend toward maintaining health and preventing illnesses, rather than treating diseases. Health consciousness has created a demand for a wide range of health professions, and New Jersey's institutions of higher education are preparing students to enter these emerging fields.
"People are living longer, and with chronic diseases that would have killed them in the past," says Carol Kleinman, chair of nursing at New Jersey City University (NJCU), Jersey City. "This creates a climate in which there are increased opportunities, new careers and new jobs that did not even exist before, beyond nursing."
