Nurse is a character that appeared in Old School. She is in charge of the Nurse's Station at Hardscrabble Farms.
During the trust fall activity, Jeffrey performs a trust fall but he is a big boy and his weight bangs into Rowley and Gareth Grimes and causes them to collapse and smash each other. The boys notice one of Gareth's teeth is missing, so they get down on their hands and knees to look for his missing tooth until his cabinmate, Emilio Mendoza finds it on Rowley's forehead. Mr. Jefferson tells him he will have to run down to the Nurses Station to get the nurse and she brought the damp washcloth to Gareth Grimes to stop the bleeding from his dislodged tooth. But she cannot pull his tooth out of Rowley's forehead because it is still lodged in there. His father, Mr. Robert Jefferson called his wife, Mrs. Linda Jefferson to come pick him up and take him to get it checked out. Greg wonders if she ended up sending him to a doctor or a dentist, because he has no idea what people do for that sort of thing. Rowley returns to Hardscrabble Farms on Friday morning with a bandage on his forehead after surgery. When he sees Gareth Grimes, he gives him back his tooth that was in a jar. Rowley had gotten an infection from the tooth, that's why he was gone for so long from Tuesday to Thursday, possibly he stayed at home or at the hospital. Gareth is not sure what he's supposed to do with his tooth at this point. During the practice of building a campfire for the last day of the night, Rowley collects a bunch of weeds and tosses them onto fire, which totally smothers it. It turns out Rowley had collected a bunch of Poison Ivy leaves and he got covered with spots when he woke up on Saturday morning, and his father, Mr. Jefferson also woke up and he had trouble breathing after he inhaled the fumes and got it into his lungs. Then the nurse called Mrs. Jefferson to come pick them both up. This leaves Greg's group as the only group without a chaperone because Mr. Jefferson already left due to breathing difficulty. Melinda Henson gets sent to the nurse after making herself sick by eating too much Stew.
