Nurse A British nurse caring for a baby in 2006 Occupation Names Nurse Occupation type Healthcare professional Activity sectors Nursing, Health care Description Competencies Caring for general well-being of patients Education required Qualifications in terms of statutory regulations according to national, state, or provincial legislation in each country Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life. Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in a wide diversity of practice areas with a different scope of practice and level of prescriber authority in each. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has come to shape the historic public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurses are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings depending on training level. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing. Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient's family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life. In the U.S. (and increasingly the United Kingdom), advanced practice nurses, such as clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on individual state regulations.

A deeper understanding of their motivation, career paths, and job satisfaction is needed to target recruitment and retention efforts. Currently the largest male cohort entering nursing is by second career. This study examines if job satisfaction differs for men who choose nursing as their first choice of career, as a convenience after exploring other options, or as a second career. Methods: This mixed-method study examined the relationship between men entering nursing by choice, convenience or second career and their resultant job satisfaction. A convenience sample of 238 men answered an online survey. Entry path, current practice position, and future career plans in five years was by self report. Job satisfaction was measured using Lester’s instrument.

  • Men in Nursing
    A Peer Reviewed Publication of the College of Allied Health & Nursing at Nova Southeastern University Dedicated to allied health professional practice and education http://ijahsp.nova.edu Vol. 9 o. 2 ISS 1540-580X Men in Nursing Jonathan Wolfenden, RN, BScN MScN Student, Athabasca University, Athabasca, Alberta Canada CITATION: Wolfenden, J. Men in Nursing . The Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice. April 2011. Volume 9 Number 2. ABSTRACT The purpose of the paper is to examine the view of men in nursing. It is a discussion on whether a systemic trend to marginalize men in nu rsing exists and the impact this systemic trend has on the nursing profession as a whole. The trend to marginalize men in nursing is examined through the use of a general literature search. The literature search performed looks for examples and statistics on the number of men in nursing and the view of men in nursing, held within the profession and by the population at large. The smaller trends within nursing, from the use of gender biased -language to sex-based discrimination within the education of nurses are all explored, especially within the context of the marginalization of men in nursing. The impact these smaller trends have on the wider trend to marginalize men, and the impact they have on the profession, are also explored. The systemic trend to margi nalize men in nursing means men will never be truly accepted in nursing , which in turn, will exacerbate the current nursing shortage the profession is experiencing. INTRODUCTION “Unlike most other professions, nursing has made no global effort to change t he sexual imbalance of its workforce .”1 It is commonly believed nursing obtained professional status when Florence Nightingale created professional schools of nursing at the turn of 20 th century.2 This professionalization by Florence Nightingale , while ele vating the status of nursing t o a respectable profession for women, has as an unintended consequence, begun the marginalization of men in the profession .

  • Women Only? an Exploration of the Place of Men Within Nursing
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ResearchArchive at Victoria University of Wellington WOMEN ONLY? AN EXPLORATION OF THE PLACE OF MEN WITHIN NURSING by Mark Entwistle A research project submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Applied) in Nursing Victoria University of Wellington 2004 Abstract This dissertation came out of my wondering why there are still so few men going into nursing especially when one considers that the history of nursing reveals men have been a part of nursing for a long time. In New Zealand it is only since the mid seventies that men have been able to gain the exact same nursing qualifications as their women colleagues. Men in nursing are still seen as unusual in that they work in a predominantly female occupation and have had their masculinity questioned by the myth that all men in nursing must be gay. There is also the notion that caring is a difficult task for men and is seen by society as a uniquely feminine ability. Both issues are related to dominant notions of masculinity. In addition to this there is currently a crisis in terms of a nursing shortage and it has been suggested that one way to resolve this crisis is to encourage more men into nursing. Thus this exploration as to why there are so few men in nursing is timely. Men who choose nursing as a career risk challenging the traditional roles of their gender stereotype.

Henderson, Ed.D. Men have worked in the nursing profession throughout history, yet, the stereotypes and gender bias that male nurses experience still permeates society today. Indications of these may be responsible for the relatively minimal growth in the percentage of males choosing nursing as a career. Studies on nurse educators’ evaluative interactions and observations of male nursing students’ performance have not included those in a clinical setting, a critical component of nursing education. No research has provided insight into the nurse educators’ perceptions of male nursing students in these settings, although there is a plethora of literature focused on men in nursing.
