Help! I have worked in healthcare since 1995. The last 2 years have been the worst in my working life. I am a licensed occupational therapist that has worked with seniors. For the last 10 years I have managed senior living facilities. I have 25 years of management experience and multiple specialties and credentials. I do need a certain income, but can’t seem to find anything that I think I would nab an interview. Does anyone have any ideas???
