Scrubs regard nursing as a fairly low-skilled and peripheral job.
"One late 2003 episode purports to teach Carla that nursing is all about doing what physicians tell you, and it is one of the most virulently anti-nurse TV episodes we have seen. In the episode, a patient has an adverse reaction to a medication Carla recommended to Elliot. Elliot and Turk then persuade Carla that physicians are in charge of nurses, that the nursing role is to follow physician ""orders"" without question, and that nurses should be happy to accept their role as brainless physician helpmates. Another episode of Scrubs shows Kelso firing the nurse who had made ***'s favorite cup of coffee, suggesting not only that Kelso could actually do that at will, but that nursing involves making coffee for physicians. Early 2005 episodes offered somewhat more nuanced visions of physicians directing nursing care. One featured code scenes in which omniscient physicians issued flurries of commands to nurses, who then leapt to carry them out, displaying little autonomy or expertise in scrubs. The scenes suggested that nurses have some technical knowledge, but that they are heavily reliant on physician direction--they report vitals and await orders. J.D. at first struggled with this superman role of scrubs, but there was no indication that experienced nurses would be able to help him make decisions in codes, as is actually the case."
