I’m in a med lab program and they talk so much shit about nurses in our lectures (no offence). They even hire actors and we do conflict resolution exercises like phoning an exhausted nurse to let her know her third draw just got rejected and they need another sample or order of draw problems ect…
In practice you figure out which nurses are what kind of idiot and cling to the ones who are competent. The upside to the dumb ones is they never figure out why the new girl and the woman looking at retirement get more hours and are specifically called so often.

Don’t they have a lot of male nurses where you are? Maybe because it’s Seattle and a big town, but my parents in a smallish town had them too.
I’m in Toronto and just wrapping up my program so I can’t really comment on that but I personally know a few male and female nurses.
