1.護士 Nurses

The number of registered nurses is expected to swell to 3.2 million by 2018, accounting for approximately 581,500 new jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's up from 2.6 million today, and it represents the largest overall growth projection out of all occupations in the U.S. economy, for good reason.

據美國勞工數據統計局預計，2018年在冊護士總數將達320萬人，現在從業這只有260萬人，這意味著該職業將會帶來大約58.15萬新增就業崗位，而且成為美國增長幅度最快的職業。這一現象事出有因。

Americans aged 65 and older will make up 19% of the population in 2030, up from 12.4% in 2000. As the population ages and the growth of the working-age population slows down, there will be an increased demand for health care services in general, and home health care services in particular. In the past year, the home health care services industry has experienced sales growth of 11.2%, making it the fastest growing industry in the U.S., according to Sageworks, a financial analysis company.

2030年將有19%的美國人是65歲以上的老年人，而2000年的時候這一比例只有12.4%。隨著人口老齡化的加劇和適工年齡人口增速的減緩，健康護理服務，特別是家庭健康護理服務的需求將會日益增大。據金融研究公司Sageworks分析表明：去年，家庭健康護理服務業的銷售增長率達11.2%，使其成為美國增長最迅速的行業。

Along with registered nurses, Sageworks projects that home care aids, physician assistants, pharmacists, and other medical professions will be in high demand for the foreseeable future.

Sageworks還預測：與在冊護士一樣，家庭護理員、醫師助手、藥劑師和其他醫學類職業在不久的未來將會很熱門搶手。
