Men in Nursing

Published

What is the outlook for men in nursing? I have heard previously that males are more desirable as employees because of physical strength and that they don't need to take as long of a maternity leave. I also realize that men are the minority currently and does that affect the eligibility of males to be hired?

Just curious- Why do you ask? Are you considering gender re-assignment?

I'll bet there are new grads out there thinking, "If it will help me get a job ........"
