The Daily Herald reported how many older adults are choosing nursing as their second career, as it can provide adequate job security while also giving the individuals a sense of self-worth by improving the lives of the patients they serve. There are now many programs across the country that offer accelerated nursing programs for individuals who already have a college degree in another field.
