Male nurses? In the past, an admission requirement for
baccalaureate programs in nursing was being a woman.
This admission requirement was changed, and since April 2007, men also have been accepted into nursing programs.
The concept of male nurse, which is one of the important developments in the history of Turkish nursing, is a very new concept for our country.
In conclusion‘’Here we are
With a dream to build,,Hopes to fullfil,,Vision to realize
And a future to construct ’’
