Mnemonic

The reason you’re trying to defer to a nurse is because you’re trying to save the local farmhand, Joe (じょう). He’s seriously injured, and you don’t know how to help him, so you’ll have to defer to the knowledge of a nurse.

Hints

You’re starting to panick because you don’t know to help Joe, so you’re just going around saying “Nurse! Nurse!” repeatedly, desperately looking for someone you could defer to. Nurse!!!
