It is not permissible to work in this place due to the presence of Shariah prohibitions such as unlawful seclusion (khalwa) and impermissible mixing (ikhtilat), except in cases of extreme necessity to meet a need, provided that one seeks another job and avoids these prohibitions. As for the salary, it is not unlawful, because nursing itself is permissible.
