The only women who have fallen for his charms are his wife and Rose Stagg, some years ago when they were students before he was married. The victims that we know about, i.e. the ones we've seen, didn't know him. He stalked them and got to know their routines, as we saw in series 1 and as the newly-discovered journals have told Stella and her team, but it's not the case that he charms women, gains their trust and then kills them. We saw with Sarah Kay, whose purse he stole in a bar and then gave back to her, having taken her driving licence so that he had her address, and Annie Brawley, the woman who survived but whose brother was killed as he tried to protect her, how he operates.
I very much hope we're not going down the road either of the nurse helping Spector to escape or becoming another victim, but as he's being moved soon to the psychiatric clinic he will presumably be out of her care.
I agree with others who've commented that in reality it would be most unlikely that he and Rose Stagg would be in the same hospital, and that he'd be more likely to have a male nurse than a nurse who fits his victim type. These are just a dramatic device to ramp up the tension though.
