  1. Male RN in maternity

    There was myself and another male nursing student in our clinical group and our clinical instructor was horrible. Right off she made us uncomfortable and always paired us together with first time moms who tend to be more shy. Honestly didn't learn an...
  2. To become a nurse, or not become a nurse?...

    You are going to get a lot of negative Nancys and Donald downers who no matter where they are they are never happy. To be honest, some of those people are probably out of touch with how bad the economy really is and are oblivious to how lucky they ar...
  3. New name for nurses who are men

    I agree midlife.... They all took this way too seriously... I am in school right now and someone in postpartum ask me the other day what kind of nurse I wanted to be and I told them a midhusband / lactation consultant. They laughed their a$$ off. I w...
  4. Why do you feel that nursing is for you?

    I am going to be honest here. I got in it because I owned a small real estate company, but we all know where real estate is. Prior to real estate, I was a patient advocate at a hospital, so I am all about helping people. But the precipitating reason ...
  5. being discriminated against in clinicals

    You know that old saying, "If you can't beat em,' join em.?' What I would do is find some or at least one that you think you might get along with and try to join their group. Just make it subtle. I truly believe it would be in your best interest beca...

  7. being discriminated against in clinicals

    That is so true. Women will go on about something forever. With guys, they might yell, but once that happens, it is done and over.
  8. Weird lab vibes

    I sometimes wonder if and when people feel a weird vibe from other people if it isn't actually a projection that they themselves aren't putting out there. I am in first semester nursing and there 23 girls and 3 guys. I don't notice any kind of discri...
  9. MALE NP

    I am a first semester male nursing student. I would like to advance on to the practitioner program, however, as I understand it, they are going to make that a doctorate program. Not sure that my information is correct, but it makes me think that may...
  10. Is it me, or is there a dichotomy for male nurses??

    I used to work at a psychiatric hospital and there seemed to be a high number of male nursing staff that worked there. They were all married "normal" guys. I myself am going to nursing school and I consider myself a "normal" married guy. Even the ot...
  11. Ages of male nursing students?

    I just turned 35 and I'm in my 2nd year of school. There are two other guys in my class and I'm guessing one about my age and the other about 30. Prior to this I worked in the real estate industry and we all know where that went.
  12. The Guys Club: Guy Students Come on In!

    I know this is an old post, but just wanted to say I'm in the club! I am 35 years old, married with 2 kids and in my 2nd year of school.
  13. Accelerated programs...expensive or cheap?

    Wow, I am glad I don't live in some of those areas. I live on the Eastern edge of Kansas and I am going to a CC which will cost about $10,000 for their 2 year program. There are programs in this area that costs upwards of $30,000 for a one year accel...
  14. is nursing right for me?

    I am currently in nursing school myself. I worked several years at a mental facility and the nurses mostly never got their hands dirty. It was always up to the aides to do that kind of work.
