Are there certain nursing specialties that are "better" for men than others?


January 8th, 2023

I think most specialties could be good for men, or adapted for men. I would do a process of elimination where you say ok, labor and delivery? Maybe not, but being the clinical director there might be great. I would think of various procedures and how you as a male would feel about doing a let's say female catheterization, as well as whether you plan to have a female accompany you in certain procedures. Psychiatry would be a field I would recommend. as well as o.r., or E.R. where you always have a team to work with.
