While it is rare, intentional harm of a patient by a healthcare provider can happen. Does your facility have a process to identify patterns of possible murder by healthcare providers?

Analyze selected cases of healthcare providers alleged or convicted of murder.
Review the motives of alleged or convicted healthcare providers charged with serial murder.
