I'm a student still, but in Miami most female patients in the hospital are over 65. I have only had one patient ask that I not be the one to take care of her wound dressing as it would've meant going under her gown. For everything else she had no problem with me being her nurse, and no other female patient has complained. I have always given them the option of having me or a female nurse student if I sensed they were uncomfortable, but most often I have found they are more apprehensive over us being students than over me being male.

Doing a one-year accelerated RN option, that's me every day.

I'm 37, doing a 1-year accelerated program. There are 8 other guys and most are between 25-30-ish. We also have one 21-year old.
