Any good word/phrase for nurses, PBNs, and midwives?
Dear all,
I am trying to find a good word/phrase for the category that includes nurses, public health nurses, and midwives. There is a word for that category in Japanese but I couldn't come up with one in English. "Healthcare professionals" might include them all but it also includes many other professions. A kind of exclusive term for the three professions is more preferable. Is there such a word in English?
Thank you for your kind attention! Tara

How about 'nursing professionals' or 'nursing officers'?

Thank you very much for the suggestion. "Nursing professionals" works.
I wonder if just 'nurses' just works as a general term, especially when midwives are
all trained also as a nurse as it is the case in Japan. Does it all depend on the
licensure system of the country, probably?
