Baby Boomers—those born between 1946 and 1964—are retiring at the rate of thousands per day. In contrast, Pew Research Center (2018) reports that Millennials—ages 23 to 38—currently make up the largest portion of the US labor force, having surpassed Generation X in 2017.

With large segments of the population entering their senior years and another with growing families, health professionals will be in demand to meet these increasing needs.
