Also, "nurse" used not to imply having education
in medical practices.
Hence the expression "trained nurse", followed by
"Registered Nurse" and "Licensed Practical Nurse". There
was another kind, which I have now forgotten.
There used to be a Red Cross course called "home nursing".
I think I had more to say, but I just fell asleep. But I'm
going to sleep in my own bed.
Kept wanting to ask the nurses (several varieties, all
wearing the same scrub suits, including the housekeeping
staff) silly questions such as "are student nurses still
forbidden to run." Which came to me as I was "nurse
walking" to the car for something.
Ah, I think the root meaning of "nurse" is the kind rich
people hired to take care of small children.
