Nurses represent the highest proportion of workers in Australia’s Health Care and Social Assistance sector, which is projected to grow by over 257,000 jobs (or 12.1%) over the five years to May 2028^.
However, according to new research, Australia’s supply of nurses is struggling to meet the growing demand, with the latest projections predicting a shortage of 79,473 nurses by 2035*.
The medical and healthcare industry is ranked #1 Australia for being ‘recession-proof’*. Even during an economic downturn, people will always need access to medical care from qualified health professionals.
