The Nurse is the cheapest unlockable class in Animal Hospital (Anomaly). Instead of improving your Sanity or giving you weapons, Nurse focuses entirely on inventory space, allowing you to carry more items before returning to storage. It's a simple class, but it can be surprisingly useful if you're constantly running medicine and supplies across the hospital.

If you're wondering whether the Nurse is worth spending your first Animal Coins on, here's everything you need to know.

Animal Hospital Nurse overview

Nurse costs just 20 Animal Coins, making it one of the first classes most players can unlock. Rather than boosting combat or Sanity, it lets you carry additional items, reducing the number of trips you need to make between storage and treatment rooms.

If you're usually delivering medicine, coffee, or emergency equipment for your team, Nurse offers far more value than its low price suggests.

Pros & cons

Nurse abilities

Nurse focuses on one simple mechanic:

Carry more items than other classes.

As the class levels up, your inventory capacity continues to increase.

Nurse also begins every run with:

• No starter cash
• No bonus Sanity
• Increased inventory capacity based on class level

Nurse only increases your inventory size. It doesn't improve treatment speed, restore Sanity, or provide any starting equipment, so its value depends entirely on how often you're carrying supplies.

How to play Nurse in Animal Hospital

Unlike Secretary or Doctor, Nurse gets the most value while moving around the hospital.

• Stock up on medicine and supplies.
• Deliver items to treatment rooms.
• Help Doctors complete treatments.
• Restock when needed.
• Repeat.

Because you can carry more items than most classes, you spend less time running back to storage and more time helping teammates keep patients alive. This becomes especially useful during busy shifts when several treatment rooms need supplies at once.

Best team role for Nurse

Instead of every player carrying a few items, let one teammate act as the team's supply runner while everyone else focuses on their own responsibilities.
