Abuse by care professionals. Part 5: implications for nurses.
The fourth article in this short series of five articles focused on the support resources for those care professionals who abuse and on the support needs of, and resources for, a person abused by a care professional when she was younger. The view that such resource needs could become a 'wish list' devoid of financial contexts was briefly mentioned. This final paper in the series will use information gathered from previous articles to formulate some general suggestions for future practice and will discuss such a 'wish list' in terms of its implications for nurses and nursing practice, although as this series has aimed to highlight abuse by all care professionals and not just nurses, such practice implications can apply equally to all healthcare professionals and even beyond to include social, educational and religious professionals.
