Why does she stay in his room? Was she waiting for him to die or something?
I heard there was a time where nurses and people in the medical field where not overworked and under constant time and financial pressure. Might be a legend though.
These comics were drawn (or at least look like they were drawn) around the 60’s, maybe the 70’s. Hungarian medical care has never been to Western standards, and I cannot say it has had a steady improvement since. I cannot speak for the seventies since I wasn’t even alive back then, but based on what I read about it, shortages and long shifts have been a thing back then, as well.

It still exists but it’s rarely a nurse, these days. Usually gets contracted out to businesses that help at home or in hospital stays in case of head injury, loss of mobility, trouble using facilities such as the kitchen or the bathroom alone, etc.
Example businesses:
Home Helpers (CO)
Home Helpers (MI)
Home Helpers (OK)
Home Helpers (ND)
Home Care Assistance of Albuquerque
For some unknown reason all of these unaffiliated businesses all use the same name except for one. /joke
If you have the money, you can hire a private nurse to attend to you even in the hospital.
