Maybe it's that they're so cute when they're helpless. Maybe it's that we really want to feel loved and protected when we're vulnerable. First aid is intimate. You have to lean in to pat a cut eyebrow with Dettol-soaked cotton wool gently. Narrowly escaping a life-threatening situation gives the scene extra zing. And the addition of loopiness from pain meds doesn't hurt. Whatever the case, patients can and do fall in love with those who give them medical care, and vice versa. When the caregiver is a professional, such as a nurse or doctor, it would be considered extremely unprofessional for a doctor or nurse to act on those feelings. Doctors are advised against getting infatuated with their patients or to clearly rebuff the patients' advances, and having sex (or any sort of overt romantic liaison for that matter) with a current patient, or any of their family members, is considered a punishable breach of medical ethics (there is a line in the Hippocratic Oath specifically forbidding that) to prevent the doctor from abusing his or her position of authority to coerce sex from patients. But in fiction, this will usually be portrayed as sweet and romantic. When the care is given by an amateur, there is an added element of romance because the medical treatment is entirely voluntary. This isn't their job, it's a genuine expression of caring for the well-being of another person. Typically, the "civilian" version comes in two flavors: Previously aloof tough character gets injured, lets the love interest treat their injuries, and reveals a newfound trust and intimacy. This might or might not involve the tough person making that hissing sound when the love interest touches their injured face, but not quite pulling away... The love interest gets injured, and the tough character treats them and suddenly reveals a tender side. The After-Action Patch-Up often has touches of this, but since it's only one scene does not often have the full-blown effect. Named for the famous nurse Florence Nightingale, although she herself never fell victim to this and if anything, would have been shocked by such an abuse of patient rights. Psychologists just couldn't think of a better doctor or nurse, thus proving once and for all that tropers aren't the only ones who choose Trope Namers that aren't examples of the trope. See Unequal Pairing if a professional has a relationship with their patient. See also The Woobie, which is what the patient may be to the audience and to the nurse, and the Victorian Novel Disease, an antecedent of the "non-ugly sickness" concept. Also compare Weakness Turns Her On. If the character giving the first aid is not actually good at it, it's Nurse with Good Intentions. Possibly contrast Lima Syndrome (though it might overlap if the captor tends to the captive's wounds). Examples |

Sidney Bliss in Carry On Loving tries to invoke this trope by claiming that his unrequited love for Esme Crowfoot led him to try to drown in the canal. He tries to convince her even further by drenching himself in water from a fire bucket, but she still doesn't fall for it (she even asks him the name of the canal he threw himself into). Regardless, she lets him into her flat anyway. | |

Fire Emblem: In Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade, Jaffar already had some degree of interest in Nino, but it turned into something more when she nursed him back to health after he was seriously injured (and going against the law of the Black Fang, actually, since she should've given him a Shoot the Dog treatment). It was made even stronger when she begged him to spare Zephiel and he made a Last Stand for her. In Fire Emblem Fates, Saizo and Sakura's support chain starts with her risking her life to save an injured Saizo and patch him up. Saizo repays her by braving a candy store to buy her some sweets, and in their S support, he confesses his growing feelings for her and asks her to marry him. In Fire Emblem Gaiden, Tatiana found Zeke after he washed ashore on a nearby beach and nursed him back to health. The Echoes remake has a a Memory Prism that shows how this happened. If both live to the end, they get married and stay together even when Zeke is actually Camus from Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, and does briefly leave Tatiana's side during the events of Mystery of the Emblem. |

Back to the Future sees Doc Brown pointing out the trope. Marty is hit by a car and nursed by the teenage version of his mother Lorraine. This results in her developing a crush on him. In the original version of the timeline, that was how Lorraine fell in love with his father George, and Marty must Set Right What Once Went Wrong, or else he'll be erased from existence. The film offers a deconstruction of the concept, since in the original timeline (where this trope was the only reason George and Lorraine got together), their marriage is shown to be rather rocky. Marty's work to repair the timeline includes building George's self-confidence and assertiveness, and he unintentionally encourages Lorraine to be honest with herself instead of repressing everything. As a result, when Marty returns to 1985, George and Lorraine are shown to be Happily Married since their relationship has a much more solid foundation. | |

A cruelly exploited trope happens in D.Gray-Man. It is first invoked by a doctor in a local hospital where he encouraged his nurses to romance with the ill patients they are attending. Meanwhile, he secretly poisons the patient through their so-called medicine. When it's too late, the doctor prepares arrangements with the heartbroken nurses to revive the patients. That's where the Akuma spawns are as well as the hospital's fundings came from. | |

In Grey's Anatomy, Izzie falls in love with patient Denny. She nearly got fired, she stole a heart, he died and then she quit. After that they continued their relationship through cancer hallucinations. It wasn't really a success. Alex slowly falls for Jane Doe/Ava as she recovers in the hospital with no face, no memory, and a baby. He eventually does the noble thing and lets her go back to her husband. A few months later, she comes back to the hospital and they have sex. Teddy feels sympathy for Henry, a patient who has a chronic illness, and marries him because he has no insurance and can't afford treatment. She eventually falls in love with him and agrees to a romantic relationship, but he dies soon after. Interestingly enough, the actor playing Henry also appeared on Scrubs as Sean who was a Patient of the Week that Elliot started dating, though he only asked her out once he was discharged and didn't have any significant health problems. |

Naruto: Implied with Yahiko and Konan, albeit in a flashback, with Konan tending to Yahiko's injuries while Nagato waits outside, and it is indicated that Konan was in love with Yahiko. This is the main reason why Sakura's childish infatuation with Sasuke turned into something more genuine. Subverted when Sakura (politely) turns down a love confession from one of her patients (because she still loves Sasuke) during the Fourth Ninja World War. |

The podcast The Bugle, in its recurring "Hotties from History" segment, insists that the actual Florence Nightingale was the ultimate example. Her name is occasionally used as a byword for sexiness in general. Doubly funny if you realize that Florence Nightingale's diaries are full of her varied romantic adventures with women—and the only direct nursing experience she had was with male patients. |

The Apothecary Is Gonna Make This Ragged Elf Happy is built around this trope. A doctor buys a dying elf girl from a slave merchant, in hopes of healing her and helping her return to her home. While he does succeed in saving her life (though two of her limbs prove to be unsalvageable and have to be replaced with prosthetics), in the end, she decides to stay with him rather than return to her home, and the two get married. | |

Arrested Development had a nurse that fell for coma patients. It would turn out that they were faking it, and when they admitted they were conscious and reciprocated her feelings (As per her "Oh, if only you were well and we could be together!" comments) she would immediately get angry and leave them for lying. Except the one in physical therapy, who really did take that step out of love. |

In Attack on Titan, this turns out to be how Eren's parents became a couple. An epidemic had swept through the village, and among the victims of the disease were Carla and her parents. Grisha was the village doctor that cared for them and saved the village by developing a treatment. The couple ended up falling in love and married soon after. | |

A brief version in Atonement. While working as a nurse, Briony has to tend to a French soldier near death. He's delirious and thinks she's an English girl he met in his childhood. Briony plays along with this. Just before he dies, he asks if she loves him and she says yes. The book and the film make it clear that she did, if only for a few moments. | |

Freefall: For a doctor, entering a relationship with a patient is ethically thorny. For a veterinarian, it's normally completely out of the question.

Happened in the backstory of The Seven Deadly Sins between King and Diane. Many years ago, Diane found an amnesiac King collapsed near a river after he was attacked by a fairy hunter. She then took care of him until he got better and they fell in love. Sadly, King had to erase Diane's memories of him after he remembered he's the Fairy King and had to leave her. They become a couple after Diane gets her memories back. | |

The Drowned Cities: Toyed with in just about every way with Mahlia and Ocho, who meet when Sayle forces her to patch Ocho up at gunpoint. There's an instant connection, and each one develops some respect for the other—respect that manifests as Ocho wanting to burn her into the unit, and Mahlia deciding to save Ocho when she uses coywolv musk to lose an entire pack on his comrades. This later develops into a strange, Worthy Opponent vibe, and they ultimately ally at the end of the book. | |

Onigumo developed a serious case of If I Can't Have You… lust for her which led him to trade himself to a pack of demons in order to obtain a demon-hybrid body capable of movement, becoming Naraku in the process. | |

In The Guide to a Healthy Relationship, this is how Daniel, a nurse, came to meet Julian, then a patient in a psychiatric hospital. By now they live together, and Daniel helps Julian deal with their mental illness...or not. And distributes their medicaments, be it the needed anti-hallucinogenics or addictive sleeping pills. And has Julian keep the house tidy and clean to ridiculous degrees. And sneaks up on Julian to scare them. And controls when Julian uses the bathroom. Or eats. And possibly beats them. The list goes on. It's an incredibly toxic relationship, and by now, Julian is so isolated and dependent on Daniel that there's no chance for them to break out by their own strength. | |

A very messed-up variation in Overlord (2012). Part of Princess Renner's plan to take back the capital from Jaldabaoth involves sending Climb to rescue civilians, knowing that he will likely be injured and die, which gives her the chance to use resurrection magic on Climb. But with the penalties that resurrection magic provides, someone will need to take care of him when he comes back, and who better than the girl who tragically sent him out on that suicide mission in the first place? Fortunately, Climb makes it through the mission alive. | |

Fate Series: The Fate/stay night character Sakura secretly wants to invoke the trope, a desire that her Shadow twists to Yandere levels. Since she hasn't confessed her feelings, caring for Shirou would be a rare opportunity to have his undivided attention (in fact, they first met because he needed help dealing with a shoulder injury) and a respite from worrying about his self-destructive habits. Unfortunately (?), when a scene of this kind actually happens in the Heaven's Feel route, the two are largely distracted by other things and it doesn't permanently stop Shirou's behaviour. In a Fate/hollow ataraxia scene, Shirou cares for Rin when she falls ill. Other than the usual fanservice of the trope, it also establishes that Rin has grown enough as a character to rely on someone else. |

RFDS (2021): The flight doctors and flight nurses are frequently hit on by patients, and sometimes return the favor. Matty meets his boyfriend Ferret on a retrieval: they went for one of his hunting buddies, only for Ferret to get in a fight with their other buddy and both come away with injuries. The two of them start dating later, though they break up in season 2, forcing Matty to temporarily move in with Wayne. In 2x1, Pete, Chaya, and Taylor treat a bull-rider named Cameron for a possible head injury, which he laughs off while blatantly hitting on Taylor. He becomes the "bad boy" in a Betty and Veronica-style Love Triangle with her boyfriend Darren for the rest of the season. Pete eventually calls her out for the breach of medical ethics (Cameron was a client at Chaya's mental health clinic, largely because Taylor works there), but she tells him that's pretty rich coming from a guy who to date has slept with two of his co-workers that we know of. In 2x6, Eliza responds to a call for a veterinarian kicked by a horse, and they get to talking on the flight to Adelaide. She demurs on giving him her number, citing the ethical problems, but it's clear she wouldn't actually mind, so he gives her his business card. Lampshaded by Chaya, who notes to Pete they're both divorced and bonding over it. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: A light version of this could be interpreted to happen in Avatar: The Last Airbender: the first thing Aang sees after waking up in the iceberg is Katara’s face as she helps him up and makes sure he’s okay; this scenario is repeated after he is exhausted from entering the Avatar State and after he is nearly killed by Azula’s lightning and Katara uses her vial of spirit water to heal him; Aang dutifully spends the series falling head-over-heels for her. The Legend of Korra has a belated version revealed in Turf Wars where Korra admits she fell in love with Asami, who took care of her when she was physically and emotionally broken at the end of Book 3. |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine does this plot with Bashir twice: he falls for patients in the second-season episode "Melora" (which doesn't really address the ethical issues) and the seventh-season episode "Chrysalis" (in which the ethical issues are a major driver of the plot, and Bashir backs off from the romantic relationship as soon as he realizes how badly it's affecting his patient — it just takes him most of the episode to do so). | |

In Wraith Squadron from the X-Wing Series, the Wraiths speculate when one of their own, Falynn, verbally defends another behind his back. One says she's sweet on him. Another says she is merely responding to his pain, like to a hurt animal, and she wants to nurse him back to health. They lay down bets. A third says she thinks it's a little from Column A, a little from Column B, and some women see a man who is a mess, feel the urge to repair his problems, and then fall in love with him while they're working on him. | |

It was made even stronger when she begged him to spare Zephiel and he made a Last Stand for her. | |

Including the titular cookies, which made everyone aside from Mr. Boynton sick. Mr. Boynton eventually telephones Miss Brooks, asking for her nursing aid. However, it turns out that Mr. Boynton wants Miss Brooks to nurse his pet frog (who had also eaten a Pensacola Popover). In "Reunion", one of Miss Brooks' friends met her husband while she working in a doctor's office. He had visited the doctor due to a slipped disk. |

In the backstory of All Dressed in White, Amanda and Jeff had been dating on and off for a year when Amanda was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma at the age of twenty-six. He proposed to her the next day and devoted himself to caring for her throughout her treatment, with her family even nicknaming him "Saint Jeffrey". They began wedding planning in earnest once Amanda was declared cancer-free. It ends up being deconstructed, as Amanda was noted by a few people close to her as having "changed" after recovering from her life-threatening illness, becoming tougher, more focused on her own happiness and less certain about the direction her life was taking. Even Jeff eventually admits that once Amanda was less frail and no longer dependent on him for support, he started to question if they were truly right for each other; it's implied Amanda was having similar thoughts, such as confiding in her sister Charlotte that she worried Jeff only proposed because she got sick. | |

A variation occurs in Red River (1995). Whenever Yuri takes the time to care for the sick or injured (who, more often than not, are also poor enough that nobody bothers to care for them normally), it causes her patients to feel great love in a non-romantic sense for her. In one chapter, when she was looking after plague victims in a town where nobody knew that she was Prince Kail's concubine, it gets to the point where someone thinks that a girl such as her is the sort of woman Prince Kail should be romantically involved with. | |

She started talking to law student Marin Grundy, reading to her (the brain tumor was affecting her eyesight), generally keeping her company, and falling for her to the point where she called favors she did not ever imagine she would use rather than watch her die. The night of Marin's graduation, she made it clear the feeling was mutual. | |

Under Suspicion: I've Got You Under My Skin: Laurie's backstory features an uncommon male example; Greg was the surgeon who treated Laurie after she was hit by a car. They quickly fell in love and got engaged three months later. It's implied that Alison came to genuinely love her husband (whom she initially married for his money) while helping him recover from his accident and supporting him with his disability. In the backstory of All Dressed in White, Amanda and Jeff had been dating on and off for a year when Amanda was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma at the age of twenty-six. He proposed to her the next day and devoted himself to caring for her throughout her treatment, with her family even nicknaming him "Saint Jeffrey". They began wedding planning in earnest once Amanda was declared cancer-free. It ends up being deconstructed, as Amanda was noted by a few people close to her as having "changed" after recovering from her life-threatening illness, becoming tougher, more focused on her own happiness and less certain about the direction her life was taking. Even Jeff eventually admits that once Amanda was less frail and no longer dependent on him for support, he started to question if they were truly right for each other; it's implied Amanda was having similar thoughts, such as confiding in her sister Charlotte that she worried Jeff only proposed because she got sick. |

Final Fantasy: In the Nintendo DS Updated Re-release of Final Fantasy IV, talking to a certain NPC in Baron reveals that the parents of Rosa Farrell were a White Mage and Fighter pair in Baron's military who fell in love on the battlefield. Note that she repeats the pattern: She's a White Mage, Cecil's a Paladin. Their quest to defeat Golbez, and then Zemus, cements their love. They produce Ceodore, a White Magic Knight. In Final Fantasy VIII, Raine falls in love with Laguna Loire after he is nearly killed on a mission for the army and she spends six months caring for him until he recovers. |

Sonic the Hedgehog Prison Island Break: It is very obvious that this has happened with Serial Rapist Shadow the Hedgehog, who is obsessed with Doctor Amy, and she is fond of him in return. It's rather creepy, especially when he threatens to rape her, and then begs her to leave because she's not safe from him, and then begs her not to leave. He's highly protective of her, in a rather rapey way. Sonic and Amy as well, with them having a graphic sex while he's handcuffed to an infirmary bed. Ironically unlike Shadow, Sonic is taking advantage of Amy's vulnerable emotional state by showing sympathy, albeit not maliciously. |

Harley Quinn (2019): Inevitably for a show based around Harley Quinn, this comes up quite a bit. As standard for the character, Harley first met the Joker when he was assigned as her patient in Arkham Asylum. He told her sob stories to buy her sympathy and make her think only she could help and love him, which let him take advantage of Harley's own wish of being needed by someone. It happens again to an amnesiac Joker who falls in love with the nurse Bethany who found him in the rubble of Joker tower. Their relationship is such picture-perfect suburbia happiness that it disgusts people reading his mind. When Joker regains his memories, he breaks it off at first but realizes how happy he was together with Bethany and goes back to ask her to take him back. Retroactively and double-sided example between Harley and Ivy. In this version, Ivy was Dr. Harleen's patient when she still worked at Arkham Asylum and she was the one who helped Ivy work through her misanthropy. Years later, Ivy takes care of Harley after she's an emotional mess after breaking up with Joker. When they have a temporary falling out, Harley even rashly accuses Ivy of preferring her when Harley needed to rely on her. Eventually, the two realize they love each other more than platonically. |

This is the crux of Obi-Wan and Cody's romance in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars fanfic By the Sea. Obi-Wan finds Cody injured, and as he nurses Cody back to health, neither one can help but notice just how attractive the other one is. What gives this extra dimensions are Obi-Wan's internalized homophobia and insistence that Cody could not possibly enjoy his company, let alone return his feelings, Cody learning to trust Obi-Wan and eventually latching onto this human who so defies all of his people's preconceptions of humans, and the cultural dissonance between the two inadvertently pushing them along. | |

The Fate/stay night character Sakura secretly wants to invoke the trope, a desire that her Shadow twists to Yandere levels. Since she hasn't confessed her feelings, caring for Shirou would be a rare opportunity to have his undivided attention (in fact, they first met because he needed help dealing with a shoulder injury) and a respite from worrying about his self-destructive habits. Unfortunately (?), when a scene of this kind actually happens in the Heaven's Feel route, the two are largely distracted by other things and it doesn't permanently stop Shirou's behaviour. | |

The Earth's Children series by Jean M Auel provides two examples in The Valley of Horses. Both brothers, Thonolan and Jondalar, endure catastrophic injuries from animal attacks (Thonolan from a woolly rhino, Jondalar from a cave lion) and end up married to the women who nurse them back to health. It's combined with Rescue Romance in Jondalar's case, as Ayla prevents the lion that attacked him from finishing him off (she had raised the lion from a cub) and carries him to safety with only her horse to assist her. | |

Suicide Squad (2016): Doctor Harleen Quinzel fell for the Joker while she was treating him at Arkham. She helped him escape, and he repaid her with electroshock therapy. Once her brain was broken, she cheerfully jumped into a bath of chemicals in order to receive the same transformation he did. After Doctor June Moon was possessed by the ancient witch known as the Enchantress, she fell into ARGUS custody. Amanda Waller put Rick Flag in charge of keeping her safe, knowing that the relationship would become romantic. This gave her control of Rick, June, and most importantly, the Enchantress. The Enchantress eventually slipped the leash and became the Big Bad of the movie. |

Once they're safely back in the States, she tells him the truth, whereupon he says he doesn't want to see him. Problem is, he's not safe yet, and she's still got feelings for him. She ends up saving his life, as herself, and Finch suggests that to avoid this trope they don't communicate for several months. Several months later, they're still interested. Despite the fact that he initially knows almost nothing about her and she knows almost everything about him, it still works out. | |

He broke his left leg so he was admitted to the hospital, and during his stay, Yoshimi Iwai -the nurse in question- fell for Ryo as she took care of him. This is also how Kazue and Mick become a couple late in the series' run, as the former, in the process of caring for and helping the latter to recover, develops romantic feelings as a result. |

Oz: Ryan O'Reily falls in love with Dr. Gloria Nathan after she saves him from cancer. When she doesn't return his affections, he orders his Psychopathic Manchild brother to kill her husband. Dr. Nathan eventually does fall in love with him, mainly because O'Reily is a Manipulative Bastard and Nathan is emotionally vulnerable after being raped. | |

She and the medicine cat Alderheart start to develop feelings for each other, but ultimately both of them accept that it wouldn't work out due to their different lifestyles, and Alderheart's calling as a medicine cat means too much to him to break his vow and take a mate. | |

Lois & Clark had Lois's amnesia therapist fall for her. In a rather extreme version of this trope, rather than help her recover her memories, he actively sabotages her attempts to regain her memory (and her relationship with fiancé-Clark) and instead hypnotizes her to leave with him. An earlier episode has Bill Church Sr. (head of the Intergang) marry a young nurse after some heart surgery. She proceeds to put him and his son in jail and takes over the criminal empire. |

Lensman ("Galactic Patrol"). When Lensman Kimball Kinnison is severely wounded, his admiral orders that the most attractive nurses in the Patrol attend to him, figuring he'll inevitably fall in love with one, so she might as well be a looker. The doctor criticises this popular belief, pointing out that while patients fall for their nurses, the reverse seldom happens because the nurses aren't seeing the patient at their best. Nevertheless the stunning Clarissa MacDougall attends to the handsome hero, and sure enough, the two proceed to ... annoy the hell out of each other. It's not until considerably later that they start to develop a respect for each other and then fall in love. In this case, it later turns out to be a bit more complex, since Kimball and Clarissa's marriage has been planned as part of the Arisian plan to produce humans psychically powerful enough to become Third Stage Lensmen. The number of people—or rather, entities—who had an interest in getting them together is rather high... It also goes deeper than the skin. Surgeon-Marshal Lacey isn't picking his nurses on the basis of their looks, but on their skeletal structure—he has a theory that the skeleton tells all, and that a more "perfect" skeleton indicates greater human potential. In a way, it's a twist on phrenology but it's justified in-universe (unknown to him) because of the fact that the Arisian breeding program has created the acme of both physical AND psionic/mental perfection in its penultimates, so of course the best skeletons will "match". |

A Third Watch storyline had a young woman falling for paramedic Carlos after he rescued her. She becomes obsessed with him after their one-night stand and is heartbroken when he ditches her after she gets pregnant. The last we see of her is her vaguely telling him "you don't have to worry about it, I took care of everything", implying that she had an abortion, but years later, we learn that she DID have the baby (a lawyer serves him with papers after she dies and he places the child for adoption). | |

Sword Art Online: In the Alicization arc, this ends up happening to Alice Synthesis Thirty when Kirito is put in a catatonic state after defeating the Administrator and suffering severe brain damage due to Glowgen Defense Systems' assault on the Ocean Turtle. Spending six months taking care of a completely invalid patient led to her developing intense feelings for him. It is so strong that when Kirito's in-game wife/real-life girlfriend Asuna enters the Underworld simulation, she has an immediate hostile reaction to Alice when the subject of him comes up. It should be noted that although Kirito has lots of female admirers, Alice is the only one Asuna had such a strong reaction to. In the same arc, a boy named Takashi dives into the Underworld along with the other Japanese VRMMORPG players to help fight, and encounters an Underworldian girl named Frenica, who is acting as a healer for the Human Guardian Army. She heals him, and he is instantly infatuated with her, and the two express a mutual desire to see each other again after the war. |

She starts to develop feelings for the doctor after being distant from her husband John and even tries to kiss the man, but he puts a stop to it by instantly informing her husband and resigning. This is partly because he's well aware of the phenomenon of transference, and partly because John Smith is a very high-ranking Nazi official who had already threatened his life before, and whose bad side he really doesn't want to be on. | |
