Heather Pressdee is accused of administering excessive doses of insulin to 19 additional patients.
A western Pennsylvania nurse who was previously charged with homicide, accused of intentionally overdosing her patients with insulin, is facing new charges. Above: Previous report from WGAL's sister station WTAEAttorney General Michelle Henry said Thursday that 41-year-old Heather Pressdee was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, 17 counts of attempted murder and 19 counts of neglect of a care-dependent person.
The alleged crimes happened while Pressdee was employed as a registered nurse at five different facilities: Concordia at Rebecca Residence, Belair Healthcare and Rehabilitation , Quality Life Services Chicora, Premier Armstrong Rehabilitation and Nursing Center, and Sunnyview Rehabilitation and Nursing Center. The AG alleges Pressdee typically administered the insulin during overnight shifts when staffing was low and the emergencies would not prompt immediate hospitalization.
