There are many male nurses at this site who are likely to say many different things. There are NUMEROUS threads about this very subject. You do a search like "men in nursing" or "male in nursing".......there have been literally thousands of posts here about this. I say go for it. If it's what you want to do, you are welcome. Right now with a shortage like this, anyone who is sincere, has integrity and common sense as well as dedication to duty would be more than welcome, male/female, gay/straight, no matter the color/race/background of that individual. Good luck!!!! And do that search, you will see so much there.
