There are opinions that it was the actress who plays Helen and that it was the actress who plays Brenda.

I was wondering if last night we had the trick or treat of casting a RL medical person.
In One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Jack Nicholson's character Randall was interviewed in a couple of scenes by a doctor (including the intake scene) who was not an actor, but earned his crust at the time as a senior medical doctor at the Oregon State mental hospital. The very hospital which was used in the film.

But was the doctor any good at acting?

She sounded like an automaton, or the diary room voice of Big Brother.

The actress that played the nurse in the abortion clinic was Alison Pettit - cast for the part of the nurse, so not Helen or Brenda.

Thanks for the response, Tayler.

Why was an actress chosen who had such similarities in speech to Helen? This was very confusing for the listeners and this was compounded because there was no cast listing for this character.

That must be very much in the ear of the beholder. To me the nurse sounded as similar to Helen as Sid sounds to Oliver!

I agree - I didn't think she sounded like Helen, or any other of the cast.
