nurse's

Belonging to caregiver

Nurse's is the possessive form of nurse, indicating something belonging to or associated with a nurse.

It appears in compounds like nurse's aide (an assistant who helps nurses with basic patient care), nurse's station (the central work area on a hospital floor), and nurse's cap (the traditional white headpiece, now largely obsolete).

The nurse's notes indicated the patient had slept well.
