I was going to say Carol Hathaway as well.......but I dont think I could have said all those reasons more eloquently or accurately as you!

Nurse Colleen on China Beach. I was only 11 or 12 and started watching and loved that show because of her. Not only was she a strong woman, she was even a stronger nurse.

I am a nurse because of Colleen McMurphy from China Beach...

night nurse...linda carter..from marvel heloed and took care of injured super heroes..then went on to have her own series

Abby Lockhart from ER. She was always a patient advocate and maintained her integrity. She proved what it takes to be a strong nurse in a trauma setting.

MAGGIE FROM THE WALKING DEAD! She may not have been a "true nurse" but she had the heart and courage of one.

Maggie Lockwood, Chicago Med

She's not a nurse. She's a surgeon.

My fave tv nurse was carol from ER. She was what we thought all nurses should be like.
