If you work in healthcare here’s where the best jobs are in NJ

We’ve all heard a career in healthcare can be rewarding and provides steady work.

We also know it has to be frustrating dealing with insurance companies and stressful dealing with administrative mandates.

My daughter may be heading into a healthcare career. She’s currently serving a four -year stint in the U.S. Coast Guard, and after already seeing more than her share of action including taking down drug runners, she’s now stationed in California and learning emergency medicine.

If she does eventually parlay that training into a healthcare career, I will obviously be proud.

Should she find her way back to New Jersey to do so, she’ll have plenty of fine places to seek employment.
