Males in Nursing School | Pros and Cons

[@shareemmiddleton5748]

I went to my orientation last week and as the class filled I realized I'm the only Male

[@Skellyy]

Shareem Middleton at our high school after your core classes you can go to this technical school and there a health occupations and there was only 1 boy there and he’s graduating and I’m going next year can feel your pain

[@vexriki4265]

Saaaame, it felt kinda weird and like I was out of place. But after a while I got used to it.

[@thegreyjedi9003]

thank you so much man im glad to have FINALLY found a video on male nursing experience.

[@austinsorenson759]

Awesome video man ... Ive been a CNA for 2 years and i love it. Currently going to get my BSN at a university but There are many pros to being a male nurse and there are some cons like some of my residents dont want a guy cleaning them or getting them to the restroom its a very rewarding field and in all honesty i love it BOOOOOM Smashing that like button bro...

[@NurseBass]

+Austin Sorenson BOOOOM!! Haha I appreciate that and yea you're right, there are definitely some con's to the job. But it's worth it!

[@riddert4966]

second year student nurse now, and i must say, people expect alot more from me. the female students really have it easier.

[@Anastasius12]

As a Southerner, I have to tell you it makes me so happy to see you enjoying your sweet tea in a mason jar... as I sit here enjoying the same! Thanks for all the great videos and advice. Male first semester nursing student here, trying to stay on the grind!!

[@ISMAEllAGUNA]

I got accepted to my school's nursing program and I will be watching your videos for the next two years. thanks

[@XandaaZzz]

Did you graduate

[@arty2436]

your a cool ass dude to start off. i’m 19 and just registered for my pre reqs to become an LPN. pretty excited.

[@NurseBass]

That's very exciting my friend! The start of the journey!

[@InheritedPowerG8]

Update?

[@apelayo87]

Man your so damn right about clinicals, I never have a problem with the nurses or ancillary staff and ladies in my group are always catching drama without trying. Your vids and NurseMurse are on point, keep it up man your work is much appreciated.

[@NurseBass]

+Aaron P Lol I appreciate it man

[@420torrez5]

yeah that's what I mean nursing is what I would like to do I like helping people

[@hillaryallen8713]

About to go into nursing school in January 2018! Thank you for your videos! They are making me feel more at ease & prepared! :)

[@aprilyolandalee5472]

Just got through my first semester.... only 4 more to go. Yay 😭 #RN

[@NurseBass]

+April Yolanda Lee That's awesome!! Congratulations on being finished with your first semester! Those next 4 will fly by!

[@iamlegend5373]

Did you finish?

[@crystalgentry9763]

SO true about instructors or clinical site instructors are much nicer to the guys!!

[@NurseBass]

Yea, that's been my experience so far anyways lol.

[@okkid1949]

I disagree that the Instructors are nicer to the men. I've been an LPN for 23 yrs and some are fine and some openly do not like men and make us miserable.

[@imeister302]

When I went to nursing school the first time, I was failed out by a female instructor who openly spoke about hating men. During the first class of the program, they showed us a video that described nursing blatantly as "women's work." It all depends on where you go to school and who you get. This is a hasty generalization at best.

[@xXCreamPuffsXx]

Ian Smith I think you should have reported that comment to the school, preferably through an anonymous route

[@leonardhilliard6310]

im in medical assistant class right now when I'm going back to nursing school don't have the time going to use a hospital that has a nursing pprogram

[@dsolomon]

The problem with heavy lifting is that it takes its toll on your back. Now I almost always get assistance from a co-worker. I've had to do rehab because I tried to do lifts that were harder than expected and doing more than my fair share of them. Use the hoyer lift. Use gait belts. Use walkers. Get 1 or 2 people to assist you with a difficult or heavy transfer. It's not worth the risk to your back.

[@disneychick8891]

the guys in my program all stick together,,, but had a hard time in labor and delivery clinicals especially post-partum unit. Hang in there!

[@NurseBass]

disneychick8891 That's pretty funny. I'm going into L&D in the Fall, so it will be interesting. The guys in our program actually don't stick together in all honesty. We all hang out with the ladies more than we do each other lol.

[@disneychick8891]

Nurse Bass U will be fine as long as you present a friendly smile with the patient and respect privacy as much as possible ...they will like you for that...It should be alright in the fall :-)

[@NurseBass]

That's good to hear; thank you for that tidbit of advice! I'll take all I can get haha

[@helookalikaman79]

Disneychick All they had to do is say NO.... not to hard to say it...

[@dinoreyes3837]

According to OSHA we are not allowed to lift more than 35 lbs. Use the lift and ask for help

[@KeepItRealRN]

When I was in school, there were about 35 total students in my class and only 4 guys. Men in nursing is a much more common thing nowadays and I think society in general has been more exposed to it. I grew up in a small town and even to this day people there assume that if a guy goes into nursing that he has to be gay (not that there's anything wrong with that~Jerry Seinfeld). Im actully finding that an area I work in CVICU has almost 50% men now. In fact on some shifts the female nurses are the minority.

[@NurseBass]

That's pretty interesting that you're seeing such a high proportion of men. It really gives you an idea of how far society has come in this regard. But yea, I don't really think that we face the same time of criticism today as others did in the past as far as being a 'man in nursing' goes. And in all honesty, considering the work that the job entails, it isn't such a stretch of the imagination to think that men might do it. I think those who criticize have that image of what television paints Nurses to be and doesn't really have a clue as to what Nurses really do. Heck, I honestly didn't even know what Nurses really DID 2 years ago. It's insane.

[@WinnetouiriVamp1]

Keepit Real, RN o

[@ajzepp8976]

Keepit Real, RN I graduated in 2001, and it was right around the time when a lot of males transitioned from other professions. Firefighters, cops, IT people, etc. Also, my first job offer out of school was for $18/hr base pay. Now we’re over twice that, and RNs can start around $65-70k, which is drawing more males into the profession. Just as more female docs is a great thing, more male RNs is, as well, IMO.

[@Ghanaba23]

From childhood I wanted to be a gynecologist but I didn’t have the money. I’m 33 now, migrated to the USA and I feel like I’m old to pursue that carrier. So I’m going to be a nurse, I love helping women

[@redphoenix1413]

Im about to finish my prerequisites for nursing, all my science classes have had fewer than 5 male students out of 30 students

[@NurseBass]

Haha the water is warm my friend, get in here!

[@spiritwaker6276]

I am a powerlifter and I train 4 times per week (usually takes more than a week, though). I train heavy and I want to know how physically demanding in either Nursing school or being a male nurse. I do have enough strength to work in physical demanding jobs, but if it requires physical demand often, and heavy, it might be difficult for me to keep up with my powerlifting career (I do take break between lifting days, though). Can you elaborate what type of physical things are done per day? I am currently in college and thinking about switching major to Nursing.

[@NurseBass]

+SpiritWaker The most physically demanding things as a Nurse are being on your feet for the majority of your 12 hour shift and lifting, pushing and pulling patients all shift. Also, the simple fact that you're doing all of this for 40 hours a week is physically exhausting. It's much more demanding than it sounds. But tons of people still find time to work out and stay active while working as a Nurse. However, I can't really say how it would affect a powerlifting career. You can always go shadow a Nurse and actually see what their job requires. :D

[@paspep]

+SpiritWaker depens, According to me, being a nurse is 99.9 % mental work. Before i was nursing, i worked in the bush as a logger, and most of my days off as a logger were way much physicaly demanding compare to a working nursing day. As a nurse, you just walk all day long, you dont have to break you back lifting heavy weights in a steep hill on slipery ground. the worst i have seen is to move some patients, but you have equipment and help. So basicaly, i think you ll have no problem at all to physicaly match the job. A day of work is nothing for somebody who trains. Nursing is in fact the easiest job i have never done (physicaly), mentaly, it is another challenge

[@spiritwaker6276]

interesting. Thanks for your opinion. Btw, do you live in U.S?

[@VictorSantana-eh4ny]

I’m seriously considering going to college for nursing in the fall next year!!

[@royryan7333]

Loved it!

[@_re.]

I'm fresh out of high school and I don't know what to expect if I go into nursing school. I feel like this has given me an insight to being a nurse and as a MALE at most, so cheers!

[@Dr_OdayAdi]

You forgot con #4 being majority of the women patients being no male care. 😩

[@helookalikaman79]

Born To Run Barefoot.... There are women that have respect for their husbands and do not allow other men seeing their body no matter the reason.... Same with some men... I refuse female providers it is way easier on me to be labeled a misogynist, that to deal with the bullshit. I worked in a hospital, I know what needless bs that happens (Yes I reported it all yet nothing was ever done as the same bs continued)

[@raimusprime7908]

@@helookalikaman79 Agreed, cultural issues like you mention but also just generational "stuff". i had an elderly lady (on chair alarm) keep getting up but when i walked in and asked if she needed help (to the toilet from what i deduced) she sat back down and said no. repeat. that's when i asked her to wait and i ran and grabbed a clinical mate who is a girl (i'm a boy) and said patient finally got relief. *shrugs* i get it, it's not me as the individual (had zero contact with patient prior) but just the patient's "generational/cultural upbringing". i don't take offense. i can only imagine what women have to go thru in male-dominated professions (e.g. police, engineers, firefighting, military, etc.). i'm pretty sure they have it rougher than i (we) do. :/

[@helookalikaman79]

@Raimus Prime... Respectfully in a medical setting have you, a guy, ever have a female in total meltdown directed at you? I have, and trust, women's issues are (neither gender should have to deal with this treatment) always focused on, men are in a blanket statement, usually ignored. He is told to man up, and deal with it... But they get pissed when a male patient does not back down. for example I had to have surgery, planned for late in the year (obviously not urgent) throughout the year the doctor, and the surgical center were reminded, and promised all male care (groin surgery) Upon being called back, I was given a female nurse, after asking NUMEROUS times, where my nurse was, or if she was my nurse she finally answered, I told her that I was promised ALL MALE care.... This led to the biggest feminist bs MELTDOWN, I have ever seen, even in movies/videos or on the net... NO joke. Even the charge nurse was looking at her like she had 3 heads... I worked it out with the charge nurse, I know when I was knocked out, they still sent in the female nurses, and looking back at it, I should have just left. The reason I didn't, was I would LOSE all my vacation time I had built up for the surgery. I wouldn't have enough vacation hours in the beginning of the year to do it, and I couldn't wait another year for surgery, I had pushed it out as far as I could already.... It was and would still be in my best overall interests to have walked out... The loss of money in vacation hours would have been the smaller cost.... Again respectfully " i'm pretty sure they have it rougher than i (we) do. " This isn't the case, IMO you and the rest of men on the planet we are programmed to think that. If a female patient has any little complaint against ANY health professional, and the hospital doesn't fire the employee (regardless of title) there is a guaranteed protests, as there is a MASSIVE resources for a female to be helped. Here a man that complains a female healthcare professional does something bad, something outrageous more than likely the man is told to either man up, or they tell him she will be disciplined but it will be a slap on the wrist... And if he is told to man up, there is no resources to help him... It is sad, and it royally sucks.... I have to get going, when I get home, I will reply with a Emergency Room incident.... just makes my blood boil

[@helookalikaman79]

Adding the Emergency Room bs... Note ALL patients should be treated as human and keep their dignity... Anytime a female patient came in, in full code, the nurses would keep the drapes closed, and while changing all male providers are kept outside the curtain.... Again in FULL code, they keep the males out even when every second counted. Anytime a male patient came in, in full code, Just like the women came into the Emergency Room, NO curtains were pulled shut, the male patient is mauled by the female nurses ripping clothes off and putting all the EKG leads on, setting an IV etc. Then one "nurse" (she doesn't deserve that tittle) went to place a urine cath, in the FULL view of ALL, nurses, doctors, other patients, and those patients visitors.... She gets the cath kit that apparently didn't have the lube packet in it. Instead of walking the 5 feet over to the med room, she just rammed the cath into the man without anything, no lube, no pain meds, no nothing... This particular man was having a full blown heart attack, I cant even imagine the pain he was going through, however as this cath was rammed into him, he jumped off the bed in pain... I reported this bs, not a damn thing happened.... Hell another male patient came into the ER, again full code, and yes again no curtains, no male nurses, this man was being undressed in front of everyone, but this man was not wearing underwear.... He while passed out, was being made fun of, in the DISGUSTING manner... That is all the nurses would talk about.... Yet when females were not wearing any, there was no jokes, no making fun of her.... again reported, again nothing happened. So honestly no, I do not think women have it worse than men, it is just socially acceptable to protect women, to fight for their rights and their modesty... And it is sadly socially acceptable to give men NO decency no modesty and if he speaks up (if he can) is told to man up.... Not what I would consider being treated like a human. Hell going back in the 60's (if not further back) if a female nurse would be taking care of male patients, if any had an erection they would use the spoon to hit it so he will no longer get an erection while in her care. (A nurse ever tried that bs with me she wouldn't have to worry about getting into trouble, she wouldn't be able to talk) So thinking in the bigger picture, thankfully male patients are being treated better than we were in the 60's...

[@Dbf1339]

I think it will be cool being a murse. Still in prereq the girls I've met also wanting to get into the program all seem happy to hear I'm going into nursing it's a easy way to connect

[@JackM12345100]

Great video. Subscribed. I am also a dude currently doing my prerequisites for nursing school. I found your video after watching another video that a woman made about how awful being a nurse is. The comments sections was depressing. It was hundreds of comments saying how much being a nurse sucks, how stressful it is, no respect, etc. What are your thoughts on this? Why do so many nurses and ex-nurses seem to hate the profession so much? Thanks!

[@NurseBass]

+JackM12345100 Glad you subscribed and joined the ride! I think that a lot of nurses dislike the profession for various reasons. Burnout, bullying, it wasn't what they expected, management, overworked, underpayed, etc. But it's all a matter of perspective my friend.

[@dportal844]

There are a lot of guys in my nursing school. I would say about a third of the class is guys

[@floridalife2800]

Haha I replayed that part twice where you are laughing and giving funny comments))) I know 3 guys in 3 different schools and they say absolutely the same thing about "Could you please help me? This is very heavy" haha So true!! Although, I have to say I really appreciate that you advise guys to go and become RNs. The studies and work seem easier when guys are around to support and puah you to the finish line :)

[@NurseBass]

Florida Life Haha, I'm glad that you found this video sort of funny; that was my intention. But yea, I really don't mind lifting things for people and helping them out. I just figured I would be silly and try and make people laugh lol. But I definitely think that men shouldn't let silly things prevent them from pursuing Nursing as a career. It's just bringing more diversity to the workforce =)

[@ayyyebeeeen]

Growing up, I always had that same stigma about men becoming nurses and always avoided going into nursing, thinking Nursing is only for women. But years later, here I am thinking about going back to school to become an RN lol. I'm currently a studying to take my Psych Tech Licensure test and hoping to go back to school to get either ADN or BSN. Right on, Brotha. Much respect to you.

[@erikasmith2885]

Patients, faculty & families are far more open to male nurses in my experience. It's actually kind of annoying sometimes 😂 But we need more in the field...it brings much needed balance, imo. My nephew recently graduated from nursing school & Im so proud of him!!

On my final placement before i qualify as a nurse, just wondering how did you find your training? As i have found it very demanding and was just wondering, is this normal to go through?, as i often feel im not cut out for it, yet i do enjoy it

[@jgbpkoolguys]

were you ever in school with any former military medics? If so i was wondering if they seemed like they were able to learn it quicker since they have had experience?

[@NurseBass]

I haven't. But I am currently in school with several EMT's and they had a little bittersweet transition. They had a great wealth of experience and knowledge in the field, so that helped them in clinicals for sure. But on tests, they had to get acclimated to the exams and "leaving their job experience and knowledge at the door."

[@dre4774]

I know this video old but I’m currently 22 and thinking about going into nursing school. My mom is a nurse I feel like going. Any advice

[@NurseBass]

If it's in your heart, then go for it. Whatever you think is going to fulfill you and make you happy!

[@NurseBass]

If it's in your heart to pursue the career and you think it is going to fulfill you and make you happy then you should go for it! Ask your mother's advice though I would say. Nothing like a parent who is in the profession to give their loved one the real spill on the profession. :D

[@kolbymiller3173]

Just a quick question for the wonderful nurses out there. How excepting would the nurses in the field be of a middle age man being a nurse? I am strongly considering a career change were I could help people in a direct way and take care of my family.

[@ShawnandStefan]

How did you support your self while going through nursing school? It must have took so much energy? 8 hour a day job then school and studying?

[@NurseBass]

+ShawnandStefan I'm actually still in Nursing School right now. But luckily, my wife is currently a Registered Nurse and we have been surviving for a while off of her income alone (which hasn't been super easy). But I just recently obtained a job as a CNA and will be doing that for the remainder of my duration in Nursing School (one more year). However, I have it easier than some people. There are those who are working part time or full time and going to Nursing School. It's definitely a grind but they're getting it done!

[@ShawnandStefan]

Nurse Bass One more thing man, this is awkward for me because I've never thought about it up until this point when I started looking into nursing, what do you think about having to shov things up another mans butt..? And also accessing their junk? Do you think you will get use to it? Or are there different nursing positions where you might not have to do that sort of thing? Also what made you wanna become a nurse?

[@ShawnandStefan]

nobodyisname I've come to understand that and realized the job isn't for me. I dont have what it takes on many levels thats only one of the reasons I've decided to pass.

[@helookalikaman79]

@ShawnandStefan Sad... We really need more male nurses, especially for us males that are NOT comfortable with female nurses be it the respect of only our wives (or husbands etc.) that see our genitalia, or like me, tired of the BS, as it is easier to be called a misogynist etc. than to deal with that bs.... As for seeing nude men, you would get used to it, as a woman getting used to seeing nude women. I had to get used to females being undressed, didn't like it, but I had to treat the patient I took that oath, and I took it very seriously. Just treat the patient with respect and you can get through a lot of "unpleasant duties" of the job without to much discomfort.

[@NurseMurse]

Honestly, I have to agree! As guys we have an advantage in health care it seems. Both women and men are needed EQUALLY BUT there happens to be less men. Therefore supply and demand just naturally causes this problem. There is a lot of sides to this discussion so I am going to end this comment here. I'd like to say though, mad love for all the ladies in healthcare and each individual brings their own unique gifts/talents!

[@NurseBass]

NurseMurse I honestly enjoy being around the women lol. Don't get me wrong there my friend lol. I'd rather be in a room with 50 women than 50 men. I just wish there were more than 6 or 7 lol. But that's the profession we chose! :D

[@NurseMurse]

Nurse Bass Agreed! There is not enough doods in the class. But maybe it's better that way, I have no idea haha

[@ADerpyReality]

Some people will be more comfortable being taking care of them. Doctor/nurse or psychologist in particular. Not all gynecologists are men or women, a lot of people have a female general practitioner. I go to a center and get an appointment with whatever doctor available but not everyone is as chill as me. One of my friends works at an elder-care place and he gets some cheeky stuff sometimes.

I'm a nurse, but i'm not being so nice with male nurse...

[@allisonv2585]

I found it to be a funny and honest video. Why fudge the truth? Imagine how the nursing field would be if women were the minority.

[@vincesolstice1342]

I am finally decided to be in a nursing School, on August my life must finally change Haha, you know what I'm saying, it's ain't easy. Dont regret everything you've done. Go straight forward face the reality, SHOOTS! no more Netflix this time

[@NurseBass]

+Mohanjit Boparai Yea, I realized that after I had already recorded.

[@NovaDivine999]

What was in that mason jar homie?👀👀👀😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@THEMMASOYRU]

"we're sought after" "we're commodities" two contradictory statements there lol

[@FlyingEbi]

“Commodity” means something useful or valued, according to Webster.

[@Dbf1339]

They can make gay jokes but I look at statistics and women out number males 9-1 for a single guy it may be nice being around women who work hard and have similar career interests. I'm also getting a BBA which opens management opportunities management jobs in hospitals pay the big bucks.
