The Gritty Nurse Podcast


Jul 2, 2020

In this episode Amie and Sara take a look into what it's like to be a male nurse. Robert Vaughan is a nurse practitioner, US Navy veteran, and creator of #meninnursing, a Twitter page dedicated to supporting and promoting men in nursing.

They discuss his journey to becoming a nurse, experience in nursing school, and reactions from family and friends. 

What gender biases and stereotypes exist in the world of nursing? Do men experience discrimination, bullying, or nurses eating their young? What advice is there for other men who want to become nurses?
