Nurses are not doctors but work in hospitals.
Conditional Statement:  P ->  Q
Inverse:               ~P -> ~Q
Converse:               Q ->  P
Contrapositive:        ~Q -> ~P

A conditional and its contrapositive always have the same truth value. The inverse and the converse always have the same truth value because the converse is the contrapositive of the inverse..
