TI  - Munchausen syndrome and Munchausen syndrome by proxy in a student nurse.
PG  - 166-9
AB  - Most faculty are not prepared for the possibility of encountering Munchausen 
      syndrome (MS) in nursing students and Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSP) in 
      nursing students' children. When confronted with MS or MSP, their first reaction 
      is often hostility coupled with a sense of betrayal. Given that individuals with 
      this condition are attracted to helping professions, the authors describe both 
      conditions in a case in which a nursing student presented with MS and the 
      student's daughter was a victim of MSP. The focus is on protection of any 
      children and the public, psychiatric treatment for the offender, and assistance 
      for faculty.
