A nurse's station on the right

A nurses station is an area of a health care facility (such as a hospital or nursing home) where nurses and other health care staff sit behind when not working directly with patients and can perform some of their duties. The station has a counter that can be approached by visitors and patients who wish to receive attention from the nurses. Stored behind the table are materials for which access is limited to health care staff, such as patient files, medicines, and certain types of equipment[1].
