Career outlook
You can be promoted from Medical Social Support Specialist to Team Leader or Coordinator, and through continuing education, become a professional nurse or social worker. Some have shifted to management positions or self-employment (home care services).
Due to accelerated aging and policies promoting inclusion of people with disabilities, demand for this profession continues to rise. The government prioritizes the development of family care and community services, expecting job growth of over 10% over the next decade. However, the working conditions are harsh and wages are low, resulting in a high turnover rate.
