[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no way someone as hot and cool as Mateo is actually a nurse. I’ve never seen a hot male nurse. lol.[/quote]

I think most people consider Nurse Jesse to be equally as hot and cool as Mateo (just a bit older) and he actually IS a nurse. So yes, hot male nurses are a thing![/quote]

I've seen more good looking male nurses than female ones. Female nurses are more likely to be overweight and less well groomed but more likely to be older, parents, and smokers than male nurses. [/quote]

There are just more female nurses, so there is greater variety. Not all female nurses are overweight or "less well groomed", which I'm guessing means not spending a bunch of money on hair, skincare, etc. There are young nurses, old nurses, attractive nurses, unattractive nurses, fat, thin, everything in between. Most nurses are women and it's a broad range.

Just like with doctors, different nursing specialties can have a "type" and that can impact how they look. Surgical nurses tend to be jocks, just like surgeons are. Nurses working in specialties like dermatology or plastics tend to be more image conscious, just like the doctors. Pediatric nurses tend to be more maternal. And so on.

My impression of ED nurses is that they tend to be overworked, which yes results in them more often being overweight or having other health issues (despite being on their feet all day). ED nurses and doctors tend not to dress up (or be "well groomed") because their work so often involves contact with very sick people and bodily fluids. No one is doing makeup touchups throughout the day. It doesn't mean they are unattractive, but the Pitt gets their dress and appearance right -- low maintenance, comfortable clothes and shoes, all business.

The biggest thing the Pitt gets wrong, and for an obvious reason, is that nurses in EDs often wear masks in order to minimize their odds of getting sick. Not 100% of the time, but especially during patient intake, dealing with clinic patients, or when the ED is particularly crowded. If the Pitt were more realistic in this respect, you'd expect around 50%, sometimes more, of the staff to be masked at any given time.[/quote]
