Kahlest was young Worf's {ghojmoq} on Khitomer when it was attacked by the
Romulans. (TNG "Sins of the Father")
For a medical nurse, use {rachwI'}:
Another word sometimes applied to the person a Federation
patient might refer to as a "nurse" is {rachwI'}. The verb
{rach} has been translated variously as "invigorate",
"fortify", and "strengthen". Thus {rachwI'} [...] is an
"invigorator, fortifier, strengthener". (st.klingon 10/98)
