The following artists are banned from the community.
It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)
As always, stay tuned here on !comicstrips@lemmy.world for a slow trickle out of Jucika comics, but if you want to find more, hereβs a good post with a large collection that /u/JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social posted last year: https://piefed.social/post/1258520

Absolute gentleman.
Man people can only wish they had a nurse like Jucika
To keep it real for a moment, Jucika should be fired immediately for this. I've seen or had to deal with traumatic head injury patients getting cords wrapped around them, falling out of bed, wandering off, etc because of people like her in this comic. It is unacceptable. You take a 12 or 14 hour shift to watch a patient: you STAY AWAKE and WATCH THE PATIENT.
similarly, if you ride shotgun with a driver who has to stay awake, then YOU STAY AWAKE WITH THEM AND TALK TO THEM
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.
