In this spiraling economy, many people have to look at new careers to stay employed. Chad and I feel very fortunate that our career choices—law enforcement and dentistry—are two of the more secure fields.
As a ‘Lister’ hygienist (member of Amy’s List), I have read with sadness that many hygienists nationwide are having a tough time finding full-time quality offices to work in. Some are forced to enter the job force in completely different fields.
One hygienist has accepted a job at the coroner’s office in her town, working as a forensic technician. I actually think that would be very interesting. Her passion is and always has been dental hygiene so she plans to supplement her income working as a hygiene temp when she can in addition to her new adventure. I wish her well.
Both of our children have voiced interest in health professions. Whether they will continue in that direction, time will tell. It’s hard to predict what the economy will do, but I feel confident that health related professions and law enforcement will stay strong. I hope I am right.
Welcome to my life,
Lisa
Are you in favor of a mid level dental provider?
