COVENTRY, R.I. — An investigation is under way into claims an on-duty firefighter and a hospital staffer had sex inside an ambulance parked outside a hospital in R.I.
In a statement released Thursday, Kent Hospital said they became aware of “an incident on the property that took place in late January involving a hospital employee and another individual.
“The hospital employee was not a nurse or a doctor. An internal review was conducted and handled according to our human resources policies. No further detail will be provided as this is a personal matter.”
Peter Hanney, a spokesperson for the Department of Health, told WPRO, “Applicants for an EMS provider or an emergency medical technician have to follow requirement that they have demonstrated to the Department of Health that they are of good moral character.”
NBC 10 reported the Coventry fire chief is also investigating the claims, but that the firefighter remains on duty.
