Absolutely. Nurses care for human beings period. We care for the body and the mind and not the race/gender/religion. When race or culture comes into play it is irrelevant because we have EMPATHY. Empathy transcends all else. When you go to work you put your prejudices aside and go care for human beings and not sterotypes.
