UK nurses are all set to break this age-old taboo‘Nursing Times’ revealed a shocking study result that thousands of nurses did not mind rooting their patients. Almost one in ten nurses did not find it wrong in having such affairs whereas one is six told that they knew of a colleague who had a sexual relationship with a patient they were looking after.
