Hi,
There is a bit of a dilemma I have, as a Muslim American and aspiring male nurse. Islam allows males to see and touch any part of a woman in cases of MEDICAL NECESSITY. But in Western medical culture, men indiscriminately do intimate procedures on women even when there is no urgency and there are female staff around.
There is more gender separation in a number of conservative environments in the middle east and muslim countries, but how to get over there and get a job without first having years of experience here? I thought of getting a BSN in the middle east instead of an ADN at a community college here, but I probably can't afford that.
Are there any Muslim male nurses here who have some input?
