To start with, let me say I can't answer this question. Only those who have done the hurting can.
In the researching for my book I looked at stories of nurses who have crossed the line. Those who have taken their position of trust granted them because of their chosen profession...and misused it. The result of that misuse is the injury, even death, of patients, or even coworkers. The most recent case I have read was the nurse in Grande Prairie who pleaded guilty to drugging her coworkers.
It is beyonf me to come up with a good reason as to why but I understand ultimately that we are only human. And any human being can be led astray by power. Nursing in its' tasks is difficult enough and yet we still must deal with the difficulties of overcoming the temptations of greed and power over anothers life.
