The nursing field is both historically and currently regarded as a single-sex occupation that is accredited for giving women their first foothold in the working world. Males have long experienced prejudice in the nursing field and their effects are relevant in the present, as male nurses experience gender bias and educational barriers. The decline of men in nursing is often attributed to Florence Nightingale, who reclaimed the respect of the nursing profession by opening a nursing school and creating nurse registries. Separate registries were created for men and women, which promoted segregation in the profession. In the present, the combination of gender assumptions, role strain, gender bias language, and barriers in education has minimized the number of men in the nursing field. Fewer men in the nursing field have contributed to the nurse shortage and may ultimately compromise the quality of patient care.
