I'm on the nurse's side. Fuck the credit card company.

But it said debit card which connects to a checking account of cash that the family would be entitled to.

Oh, you're right. In that case, the nurse is stealing from the patient and not an evil, faceless corporation. This changes everything.

Even if it were a credit card, wouldn't the estate still have to cover all debts before inheritance? So it would effectively be the same thing.

It's not the company money. It's the deceased money that most likely it's part of their family inheritance.
