In a shocking case from Greifswald, a nurse was sentenced to a probation penalty after changing the lying position of a seriously ill senior citizen who died shortly afterwards. The 32-year-old man was convicted by the Stralsund district court for attempted manslaughter for one and a half years in prison with three years of probation. The court decided that the actions of the nurse, who put the patient's head part with recognizable shortness of breath and removed her pillow, were considered an attempt to accelerate the woman's death.

Although an expert confirmed in court that the behavior of the nurse was not suitable for accelerating the death of the woman, he was nevertheless condemned. This was due to stressful testimonies that the court considered credible. The caregiver who vehemently denied the allegations must also pay 1,000 euros to a children's hospice in Greifswald. The tragic event occurred in October 2022, when the patient with cancer, who already received severe pain medication such as opioid fentanyl, was in a critical state of health and died on the night after the incidents.
