nurse

When a character is wearing the attire of a nurse. A nurse is a health care professional who regularly assists doctors and other health care professionals in the treatment, safety, and recovery of ill and injured people. Nursing is largely a female profession, but men can be nurses as well.

While most modern nurses wear medical scrubs at their workplaces, the attire this tag most often applies to is the white dress and nurse cap combination that was popular during the 20th century. Before then, western nurses were known for wearing a combination of a nurse cap, black dress, and a white apron.
