night nurse

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a late tender' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'late tender' is the wordplay.
'late' becomes 'night' (I've seen this before).
'tender' becomes 'nurse' (someone who tends to patients).
'night'+'nurse'='NIGHT NURSE'

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
