===Synopsis===
Travel nurses are highly qualified nurses who travel from one place to another to provide the needed nursing care in various cities. Nasuda Ayumi is an NP ([[Wikipedia:Nurse practitioner|Nurse Practitioner]]) who worked in the U.S., assisting doctors in the operating room. However, for some reason, he returns to Japan to work at Amano General Medical Center. Kuki Shizuka is a fellow nurse who started working at the medical center around the same time as Ayumi. He is often quiet and can sometimes be mistaken as a cleaner, but in reality, Shizuka is a legendary "super nurse" with extraordinary skills.
