Men In Nursing
Nursing is a profession which is staffed disproportionately by women in most parts of the world. According to the World Health Organization's (WHO) 2020 ''State of the World's Nursing,'' approximately 10% of the worldwide nursing workforce is male. Since the 1960s, nursing has gradually become more gender-inclusive. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) in the United States conducted a National Nursing Workforce Survey in 2020 and found that men represent 9.4% of registered nurses, compared to 9.1% in 2017, 8% in 2015, and 6.6% in 2013 Men constituted around 9% of nurses in the United States in 2011, around 10% in the United Kingdom in 2016, and around 6.4% in Canada in 2010. History While the current structure of the medical field does not directly translate to historical provision of care, there is a history of male presence in the caring of the sick and injured. The term nosocomial originates from the Greek Νοσος/Nosos (Sickness) and Κομεω (Komeo) ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
