Title Men entering nursing: has anything changed? Type Journal Article
Year 2019 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 35 Issue 2 Pages 18-29
Keywords Nursing education; Stereotypes; Qualitative research; Male nurses; Surveys
Abstract Conducts thematic analysis to identify two predominant gender scripts: of nursing as women's work, and that men who nurse are homosexual. Notes the associated themes of the effect of negative stereotyping on male nurses' career choice, and their resistance to the stereotype of normative masculinity. Considers that the same barriers to men becoming nurses have remained unchanged since first identified and discussed in the 1960s.
