Is is too late to make a change?

I am 41 and for the last five years I have been working as SNF Administrator at hospital based SNF (Transitional Care Unit - a small 16 beds unit). Because of the small size, the hospital combined my position with fiscal function so it can be a full time position (My MBA is in Financial Management).

Anyway, most hospitals around the country closed their TCU and my hospital suggested that it may do so. I have been interviewing for Administrator positions lately but most of the recruiters were CONCERN (I used the word concern just to calm myself) about so called 'TCU experience' although I thought the experience does carries some merit especially when combined with fiscal responsibilities.

Any suggestion? Sorry for the long post.

Do not be discouraged. Every recruiter, company, and even facility looks at this experience differently. A smaller building would probably be a good start for you. Under 50 beds.
