What word in this sentence does not use the plural possessive correctly? The nurse’s, doctors’, and technicians’ training is individualized to their specific jobs. none of the these technicians’ doctors’ nurse’s

The answer to the question above would be "NURSE'S". What makes this incorrect is that, it is not in the PLURAL possessive form but rather only the singular possessive form. The singular form is NURSE, and the plural form is NURSES. Therefore, the apostrophe should be after the letter "s" just like the "Doctors'" and "technicians'". Hope this helps.
