Caring Corrupted: The Killing Nurses Of The Third Reich

"In [Nazi] Germany, the health of the public was more important than the health of the individual. So consequently, to remove an unhealthy element was seen as good."

Cizik School of Nursing has created a REMI Platinum Award-winning documentary film that tells the grim cautionary tale of nurses who participated in the Holocaust and abandoned their professional ethics during the Nazi era. The 56-minute film, Caring Corrupted: the Killing Nurses of the Third Reich, casts a harsh light on nurses who used their professional skills to murder the handicapped, mentally ill and infirm at the behest of the Third Reich and directly participated in genocide.
