in nursing science Language variant: in the knowledge of hospital/nursing skill Explanation: "Nosocomica" is given as "of a nurse" ( http://diesgaudii.genvid.com/latin/1000a/terms.html ), however it comes from a Greek word "nosokomeion" which apparently means "hospital" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nosocomial_infection ). NB the Language variant is just to show you the literal references of the words; obviously it's far too stilted English.
