Can you guess which profession people consider to be the most ethical?

• 2-minute read •
There’s a reason that in times of uncertainty you’ll hear people say, “Trust me, I’m a doctor.” It’s because doctors—and just about every other health care professional—are actually some of the most trusted people around.

Each year, Gallup polls a random sample of Americans on how they would rate the honesty and ethical standards of various professions from very high/high to very low/low and average.

According to Gallup’s most recent annual poll, health care providers are some of the most trusted professionals in the U.S., securing four of the top five spots on their list.

How you can make the most money as a nurse

2016 was great for continued job growth in the health care sector. That’s not news at this point; in terms of job growth, the sector has been one of the top sectors in each monthly U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Situation report of 2016.

But wait, that’s not all. This sector has not only seen job creation, but wage growth as well, according to the most recent monthly BLS employment report.

For nurses, though, this uptick in wages, in particular, has been going on for a couple years now. In nursing, salaries increased, on average, about 1.3% per year from 2008 to 2014, according to BLS data. But in the past two years, that rate has doubled, with nurses’ salaries increasing about 2.6% per year since then.
