Healthcare pay and job outlook near Grass Valley
Healthcare support work is among the fastest-growing parts of the economy. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects healthcare support occupations, which include nursing assistants, to grow about 15 percent from 2023 to 2033, faster than any other occupational group. That demand shows up directly in Nevada County, where hospitals and care communities hire and retrain caregivers year round.
Pay reflects that demand. Nationally, the median wage for nursing assistants was about $39,530 a year, or roughly $19.84 an hour, as of May 2024, and California is among the highest-paying states, with a mean wage of around $44,700 a year, close to $21 an hour. A current CPR, BLS, or ACLS card is a common hiring requirement across these roles, which is one reason local teams keep their certifications up to date.
Wage and outlook figures are from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (Occupational Outlook Handbook, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, and Employment Projections, 2023 to 2033). Wages vary by employer, shift, and experience and can change over time; confirm current figures before making decisions.
