Nurses are the backbone of medical care. The doctors do not care for patients 24 hours a day, the nurses do that. The RNs are also the surgical assistants. They also provide on site trauma care before the injured warriors can get to the hospital or surgery sites. Without the nurses the injured would not survive.
