8 — Barbara Salisbury

Working as a nurse at Leighton Hospital in Crewe, Barbara Salisbury assumed overall control of her ward after the previous senior nurse moved elsewhere.

Salisbury’s attitude was disliked by a number of members of staff, who felt she was offensive to them and she was reported a number of times for her callous and unprofessional behaviour.

She began to tell other staff of her intentions to kill elderly patients, later administering large doses of morphine to hasten their deaths and free up hospital beds for other patients.
