Hear hear!
Love this post. Soooo great.
There are stereotypes every which way. I’m the “young” nurse, which is interesting because I’m nearing 30, but just happen to look younger. Then there are the “cute” nurses and the “male” nurses. It enrages me too. There was a patient this past week who refused to have her “male” nurse change her pad. Seriously. SERIOUSLY! You’d go to a male doctor for a pap, so what’s the big friggen deal about having a male nurse change your pad? Grrrrr. Makes me so mad.
I’m doing my part to change the stigma. At least, I’m doing my best. If we could all do a little bit it sure would make a difference.
