Help me find pictures of different types of nurses, please!

I'm giving a presentation at my daughter's school and I wanted to show different nurses in various roles. You know, OR, flight, geriatrics, ect. Men, women.

I Googled it, but I am tired of sorting through tons of "sexy nurse" and "transvestite nurse" pictures that wouldn't go over well at a Catholic elementary school.

Isn't there somewhere I can buy these??

You might want to look at ANA or Nurse Specialty organizations Like AWHONN, Oncology Nursing Association, etc. Here is a site that lists the various specialties and their sites:

BTW you can set GOOGLE to filter some of the trash out of your searches. Kind of like kid-watch etc.

Don't know if you've got time, but can you take a camera and snap some pix @ your hospital in different departments? If you know how to do power point, you can do the presentation that way, or you can enlarge them to make a display the teacher can use in the classroom.

Good Luck!

You need to turn the filter on. For example in google, do the following:

• Go to http://www.google.com
  
• Select "Image" next to "web"
  
• Right underneath the search box, if it say "safe search if off", then click on it and then scroll toward the bottom and select "strick filtering"; then select "save preference"
  
• Put "nurse" in the search box

The filtering won't filter 100% but it is quite close. I just did it and I saw some OR and other nurses.

You can also try http://www.altavista.com as they sometimes have different pictures. Select image and make sure "family filter" is on.

Or you can join http://www.flickr.com and select "tag" and input terms like "nurse", "nurses", "nursing". You will get some "naughty" pictures, but not that many as this is usually higher quality stuff.

Thanks danu. I didn't know of that option.

And thank you Zee. I ordered coloring books, but I was hoping for pictures of nurse in action. Not posing for portraits.

I put the words "nurses in action images" into Google & it came up with
