my nursing class has so many problems we are in the first semester and have just started in june. today the director of nursing came to talk to the whole class about a student in our class that is feeling that the study groups in our class are making him feel left out and then she announced that we have some gender issues so of course we questioned what she meant she said one of the students in our class is transgender and feels we are making fun of him. for 1 no one in the class knew he was actually a she undergoing hormone treatments so we were shocked, not that we have a problem with it we just think there may be a ethical issue for the patients in clinicals who are under the belief that they are being cared for by a male nurse. anyway the problem is we feel like kids in highschool since when do we get in trouble for belonging to studygroups?
has anyone else in nursing school ever been treated like this the whole class doesnt know how to cope
