Historia clínica
Se trata de la habitación de un hospital en el que la mujer del paciente se ve obligada a llamar durante la noche constantemente a las auxiliares. Me interesa sobre todo como traducir auxiliares, no se trata de enfermeras. Al parecer los términos ingleses son, entre otros: "nurses aides", o "nurses assistants" y quizás simplemente "aides/assistants".
Le estoy dando vueltas a la siguiente traducción del término:
"constantly calling in the nurses' aides/assistants".

constantly calling the nurses' aides/(patient care) techs
In US hospitals they are called nurses' aides or (patient care) techs - often just NA tech for short.

Andy Schwieter
: Nurses' aides is what most lay people would say, whereas employees in the hospital would probably say "patient care technicians."
