　　More men are finding their calling as nurses.

　　A new study from the United States Census Bureau reports the number of male nurses has doubled since the 1970s.Back then，about 2.7 percent of registered nurses were men.The new study，which tracked data through 2011，finds that men now make up 9.6 percent of all employed nurses in the United States—about 330,000 men in total.

　　Recent years of shortages have led to increased efforts，according to the report，which included recruiting men into the field.

　　Men，in fact，had been largely kept out of nursing in past decades because nursing schools often refused to admit men.The Supreme Court ruled that practice unconstitutional in 1981 after a case involving a state nursing school.

　　“The relatively high wages and expanding job opportunities make this field attractive，offering stability even during recessions(经济衰退)，”wrote the report's author，Liana Christin Landivar of the US Census Bureau.“And because of

　　high demand，nursing has low unemployment rates compared to other fields.”

　　Men were found to be more likely to become nurse anesthetists(麻醉师)，which is the highest paid nursing occupation，and were found least likely to become licensed practical or licensed vocational nurses，the lowest paid types of nursing.

　　Nurse anesthetists are required to get graduate education，and are certified to give anesthetists and monitor patients recovering from

　　anesthesia.Licensed practical

　　and licensed vocational nurses provide patients with care and may work under the supervision(监督)of a registered nurse. Registered nurses assess patients' health problems and needs, develop and carry out nursing care plans，maintain medical records，and administer care.

　　For all types of nursing，men earned，on average，$ 60,700 per year，while women earned $51,100 per year.“Even among men and women in the same nursing occupations，men outearn women，”wrote Landivar.
