How to Spot a Healthcare Serial Killer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the nurse rushing to save a crashing patient was the reason they crashed in the first place? In this episode, we profile healthcare serial killers—exploring the psychology, motives, methods, hero syndrome, and warning signs that can help dangerous clinicians hide in plain sight. Then, we restore your faith in nurses with the remarkable story of Ann Burgess, the nurse researcher whose work with the FBI helped pioneer modern criminal profiling and inspired Mindhunter.
Minisode : Nurse Doubtfire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this unhinged minisode, a former nurse allegedly hides his dead mother in a closet, collects her pension, and dresses up as her—only to be exposed by a suspiciously thick neck and an illegal drive to the ID office. Then, to restore your faith in nurses, we share the story of a nurse who saved a choking 90-year-old at Costco.
