The U.S. healthcare sector added 22,400 jobs in March, an
improvement from February and roughly in line with its average monthly gain
over the past year.
The largest decline in the healthcare sector took place within residential
mental health facilities, which shed 4,100 jobs, according to the U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics'
newest jobs report
released Friday. That's after those facilities made 700 new hires in
February.
