Health worker in November sure to be sacked (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nurse

'health worker' is the definition.
(I know that nurse is a type of nursing professionals)

'november sure to be sacked' is the wordplay.
'november' becomes 'N' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'to be sacked' indicates an anagram.
'sure' is an anagram of 'urse'.
'n'+'urse'='NURSE'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for nurse that I've seen before include "Carry on - - (film)" , "Tend the sick" , "Patient tender" , "Hospital carer" , "dogfish or > worker bee" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
