The case of a murdered nurse has gone around the world because the main suspect is himself patient. The situation is under investigation but reveals the multiple risks that health professionals face while carrying out their work.
One of the characteristics of medical care is confidentiality. It is one of the reasons why there cannot be security cameras inside the offices and neither can personal information about patients be shared. The problem is that many times this aspect can be counterproductive.
Murdered nurse, was the crime committed by her patient?
The victim’s name is Joyce Grayson and he was 63 years old. Her colleagues describe her as a calm and loving woman who had no conflicts with other people. She also had empathy, an aspect of great importance in medical care.
