Socialization is what I was thinking about, too. - Please sm

I highly recommend Work Source or state's equivalent, too. Mine works in conjunction with the library system, so I recently went to a class at my Work Source to learn what job resources they both have to offer. (Seriously, check out your library's website--job/career resources, online/in-house computer classes, networking info, resume builder & helper, etc; Work Source website for hot jobs in the area, etc). I came away from the class with a boatload of knowledge from the instructor and attendees, 3 attendee names to get my LinkedIn network started, and most importantly, an interest in socializing again.

I also am in my 50s, looking to get away from MTing, healthcare in general, and not sure what else I can or want to do. A book I am reading now, The Encore Career Handbook (downloaded from the library, of course) has been insightful and pointing me toward a path I never thought of: eldercare, possibly entrepreneurial. Its main focus is for those us who are older and looking to transition into careers in the nonprofit sector, but a lot of the tips can be applied to any situation. Good luck in search.
