With so many retiring doctors in New Mexico, it is no wonder that the state has a shortage of physicians. The medical field there relies heavily on these professionals and vacancies can remain empty for months at a time even if they offer attractive salaries with benefits like 401k plans! That's why two local universities will warmly welcome prospective students who want to pursue a career as well—especially those interested in becoming resident programmers or nurse practitioners, etc. Here we summarized some important aspects of each program:

“A major concern for the healthcare industry is the shifting demographic makeup of the nation and its states. Different groups of people—such as men and women, for example—tend to use different health services.In particular, persons aged 65 and older comprise an increasing share of the total population, with that share expected to reach 20.2 percent by 2050. This trend has had a part in the increase in demand for healthcare services and the related increase in costs. It will also influence the federal budget, as more and more seniors join Medicare.

In 2013, New Mexico had the highest percentage of residents aged 65 and over of its neighboring states: 17 percent. New Mexico and Utah tied for the smallest portion of residents between the ages of 19 and 64 at about 57 percent, according to https://ballotpedia.org.
