Re: Black male nurses
I am one..I have a special pride to my achievement @ 22yo...There are roughly 2.6 million american licensed RNs and of those RNs only 4.9% are Black & only 5.4% are men.
The average age of a RN is 45.2years old & only 9.1% of all RNs are under the age of 30.
I feel like I'm a part of some chosen fraternity by God, Lol! For the most part, I try to remain humble and never tell anyone....
Here's an interesting side note: Black and Asian/Pacific Islander nurses are more likely than all other nurses to have at least baccalaureate preparation
