How do you deal with female patients?

I am a student currently working as a Nurse Tech...I often encounter females who are apprehensive about receiving care from me...a male. I am starting to dread day shift...it seems I keep getting the 70 year old ladies that are like "Are you kidding?"

How do you deal with this? The next shift is less then happy when I tell them that only Mr. John Doe got a bath today.
