Tend; medical worker (5)

I believe the answer is:

nurse

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'tend' is the first definition.
(as in tending or nursing a patient)

'medical worker' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for nurse that I've seen before include "drink slowly" , "Tend the sick" , "Carer for the sick; shark" , "Professional carer" , "Minister to" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
