In this episode, Nurse Erica interviews Amy Loughren, "The Good Nurse", a nurse who played a crucial role in exposing Charles Cullen, a serial killer who murdered patients during his nursing career. Amy shares her experiences working alongside Cullen, the moral dilemmas she faced, and the undercover work she conducted to help bring him to justice. The guilt of not recognizing Cullen's behavior haunted Amy for years. The conversation delves into hospitals repeatedly failing to act on suspicions about Cullen, allowing further harm. The episode discusses the impact of the investigation on her life, her struggles with guilt, and her eventual spiritual awakening which led to her to explore alternative healing practices. Amy also discusses the importance of mental health in healthcare and hospital accountability in such cases.
