It is your fault if your intentions were to cause an accident. These DJ's knew what they were doing - they did it intentionaly.
Not appreciating the potential concequences is not a good enough excuse. Clear stupidity and disrespect.
I work in a non-UK hospital as a senior manager - patient confidentiality forms part of my remit. Regardless of this being a prank call, this type of situation would likely be considered gross misconduct on the part of the nurse and dismissal the most likely outcome.
That's the way the NMC works. Breech of confidentiality would potentially be instant off the register.
I remember two such instances quite vividly. First a nurse on her way to an early shift. There was a queue to get tickets (tube) as the ticket machine was broken. The barrier was open. She went through got caught without a ticket. She was deemed to have placed the profession into a position of disrepute - she was struck off. The second one. A bloke - parents were wanting to take their kid home but wanted some medicine for on the way home for pain relief. Pharmacy were taking ages (Friday) and had not dispensed the prescribed drug. He looked at the drug chart and drew up the appropriate amount of Calpol in a syringe and gave it to the parents. He also got struck off (for the act of dispensing). Compare and contrast that to the GMC which lets doctors get away with murder (almost literally) and the Chief Execs who seem to just move to another highpowered role after scandal involving complete failures in procedures and the resulting death of babies in London (I won't go as far to name names but hardly that difficult to find).

Judging by the majority of posts, it seems the tabloids have brainwashed you into believing the story on depression.

Hilarious prank though.
I appreciate that when I drive, if somebody walks directly in front of me I may not be able to stop in time.
This does not mean that I intend to hit them.
The radio station may have appreciated that they could cause some offence - as, indeed, an awful lot of comedians do. This does not mean that they intend somebody to kill themselves.

lol at people blaming the DJs. 
See this is what happens when a culture has been conditioned to live in a permanent state of adolescence. Completely immature and irresponsible and crass but apparantkly there is a huge market for this sort of "entertainment".
Bunch of emotionally retarded childless 20-40 year olds still living with their parents, obsessing over what celebrities are doing, always looking for the next stupid immature laugh.
From the nurse's Indian name I'm guessing there could be a culturally element to this, they seem to take shame a bit more seriously.

She has 2 kids ...she is reponsible for those kids and she kills herself because someone pranked her ? SERIOUSLY
there are mothers going through far more than prank calls who don't abandon their kids and kill themselves.

Her topping herself over something so trivial would, to me anyway, indicate some form of already existing mental problems. I mean, it's not as if she did anything wrong, she was on switchboard duty and simply transferred a call to the ward requested. It wasn't her who breached confidentiality.
