b'Nurses often take what they call the Florence Nightingale Pledge at graduation. It goes, in part, like this: \\u201cI solemnly pledge myself before God and in the presence of this assembly, to pass my life in purity and to practice my profession faithfully. I will abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous, and will not take or knowingly administer any harmful drug\\u2026.With loyalty will I endeavor to aid the physician in his work, and devote myself to the welfare of those committed to my care.\\u201d A solemn promise, from caregiver to patient, to protect the lives in their care\\u2014and above all, to do no harm. Most nurses work hard to stick to that promise. But a few, often managing to slither under the radar for years before they\\u2019re caught, do just the opposite. They chose nursing not because they wanted to heal, but because it\\u2019s a target-rich environment for them to hunt for prey. This is the story of one of those nurses: Kristen Gilbert.
