What are the benefits and challenges of being a male nurse? Some say it is easier to find work because there are relatively few males in nursing. Last edit by liono on Jan 1, '14 : Reason: grammar
I have heard the same but have heard nothing to back that claim, so I would like to know some real data on this too.
You get lots of requests to turn heavy patients, reach things that are up high, or put mop heads on mop handles. Easier to get a job? Not in my experience!
