The court heard the nurses discussed sedating patients for their own amusement or spite.
Catherine Hudson, 54, from Blackpool, drugged two patients for an “easy life” during work shifts at Blackpool Victoria Hospital between February 2017 and November 2018.
In one exchange about an elderly male patient, Preston Crown Court heard Hudson wrote: "I'm going to kill bed 5 xxx". The student had been told by Hudson to give a difficult patient Zopiclone, a prescription-only sleeping pill which given inappropriately to vulnerable patients could be potentially harmful
Judge Robert Altham, the Honorary Recorder of Preston, remanded Hudson into custody following the verdicts, which were reached after nearly 14 hours of deliberation.“The only question is the length.” “Their role was to care for the patients on their ward. This included elderly and vulnerable patients who were seriously ill. Instead, they conspired to ill-treat them, sedating them for their own convenience and amusement or purely out of spite.
