Nursing jobs, including home health aids, numbered 2.6 million in the United States in 2006.  The largest subset of this number are nursing aids who make up over 60 percent of all nurses in the field.  The total number of home health aids is just over three-quarters million people.  This fields seems set to have the most growth in the upcoming years.  Contrary to what many believe, only 29 percent of this field work in hospitals.  The rest work in nursing care facilities.  These numbers obviously mean similar distribution for where you find nursing managers.  Those with hospital experience may find an open nurse manager job not in a hospital, but in some other residential care or nursing facility.
