Increasingly Found In Central Medical Centers, The Same Trend May Be Seen In An Increase In
Neighborhood-Based Practice Centers. While Positions Are Cut In Most Industries, Health Care Is
Recognized As An Area Where Growth In Employment Is Expected. However, Nurses Are Increasingly
Employed In Community Settings As Opposed To Hospitals. This Change Reflects The Move Toward
Community-Based Care Rather Than Hospital-Based Tertiary Care. To Help Decrease The Continued Rise
In Health Care Costs, The Increased Emphasis Is On Disease Prevention Rather Than High-Cost
Treatment.
