The 20-coin unlock that actually changes how you play
Nurse costs 20 Animal Coins — typically clearable in your first solid Shift 1-3 run — and the perk is concrete: +1 inventory slot. Most class perks are passive bonuses you only notice in retrospect; the inventory slot you notice immediately, every time you load up before a shift.
The extra slot lets you stage one additional treatment item between rooms, which directly reduces cabinet round-trips. In ambulance waves at Shift 4+, that's the difference between two treatments per loop and one.
What it doesn't replace
Nurse isn't a substitute for Surgeon (the eventual free-to-play endgame pick) or Security (combat-oriented). It's the bridge between Intern and the higher-investment unlocks. Most community guides treat Nurse as an obvious early grab that you eventually outgrow.
The +1 slot vs Head Nurse comparison
Head Nurse gives +3 inventory slots for 190 Robux. The Robux price is the trade-off — if you're not spending, Nurse's +1 is what you have access to. If you're considering Robux, Head Nurse's +3 outclasses Nurse so completely that there's no reason to use Nurse afterwards. The two are alternative paths to inventory expansion, not stacking layers.
