I just started nursing school and I'm one of three guys in a class of 21. I love it that a lot of women in the class are willing to accept us guys so far...lol. I'm also a firefighter so I'm on both sides of the fence with firefighting being a male dominated job and we have women.. I say no matter the gender we are doing a job TOGETHER for a single purpose!! #TEAMMURSE

I am a 44 year old male starting classes this fall. I can't wait to be a Nurse and help people. Thank you for the video and the support! Please keep making video's to encourage other's.

I killed my back and had to do rehab because I thought I could lift patients without help. Now I get assistance every single time. It’s worth it to take the time to get help.

[marshalllaw]

Right on Ashley, I think your attitude is exactly what us fellas like to hear! And about the lifting thing: I think some guys pretend to resent it, but secretly we love that women look to us for help lifting. It refuels our inner machismo without us seeming chauvinist in any way, so it's pretty much a win-win deal! 😄👍👍

Alot of guys have permanent back issues from doing to much patient lifting and transferring, so be just be careful to remember that we are all humans and have our limits!!

Thanks for the kudos. I've done everything from ICU to hospice to detox to psych for 22 years now. It has definitely broadened me as a person and I'll always be proud of being a nurse. As a guy I'm usually assigned to the more acute of the two separated hallways of our locked Psych unit, and it's simply because I'm a male. On one hand I wouldn't want our female nurses to be attacked, but on the other hand I need a break every once in awhile. It's a chaotic and potentially dangerous environment to work in.

Nice video Ashley, i am graduating from nursing school this month and me and the other two guys in our class are doing a report on men in nursing, thinking of showing your video. I know their are many who discriminate or buy into the stereotypes about male nurses, I just hope there are more people like you that share your opinion.

Another future male nurse ... I’m kinda nervous but I’m ready

[JZLFERRER]

Great video! Facts... Things for super awkward when I bumped into maternity....

[johnnycage]

I had a woman falsely accuse me of inappropriate advances because I wouldn't take her shifts.

[BoltCRNA]

Great stuff. I used to be an ICU RN and I really liked that specialty because you have a much larger percentage of males in that dept. It helps balance out the female drama. I did a video on my channel recently about why male nurses are paid more statistically. Check it out and let me know if you disagree.

I love been a male Nurse! But the fun part is working alongside female nurses.Because, they always get me cracking up during stressful situations. working with 18 female Nurses and the only male, I always feel like that one lucky child who found fortune with 18 loving and caring family who happened to be all ladies😂 wouldn't trade that for nothing😂.By they way I don't mind lifting them patients for my female Nurses anytime any day!

It's nice to have stud muffins like Nurse Bass to work with eh? :p

Being a man working in an "all female" work place can be challenging.

You have to be on your guard at all time with what you say and even your body language.
A write up is just around the corner.

Most men in a workplace wiill snap back (i have seen fist fights after work)
But the paper work is not very common.

I'm thinking about starting an LPN program this fall and this video helped reassure me a bit.

[NurseMurse]

good video ash, I personally think its funny when males get upset when people call them male nurses but that's just me. :) Amen sister. The drama/hormones is real but guys do have it made when it comes to nursing/healthcare.

[IronReef]

I used to feel weird about the male nurse title but then I realized how proud I am of myself. Thanks for the love

[somethingwithkids]

I am a male going through nursing school vlogging every moment is amazing for me. Cant wait to finish and my subscribers and watching my life and way through nursing school

[candleankle]

I’m a male nurse and I’m not sensitive. At all. I have empathy but for sure, not sensitive.
