Cataclysm-dda: [I18n] What is 鈥檏inbot鈥橈紵
src/monattack.cpp:
a soft robotic voice say, "Greetings kinbot. Please take good care of this patient."
I can't translate it because I can't understand it.

Seems like its something like Kin (a member of the same species/family) Bot (robot) so another way of saying "Greetings fellow robot", at least that is what I think.

It was an attempt at suggesting family ties without using brother/sister because they suggest gender and robot have no gender. If you're translating to a language without neutral word like in english I suggest to default to female (so replace kin with sister basically) because it seems that nurses are mostly female in people's mind.
