FL Paramedic Fired For Recording Patient's Medical Phone Call

A Florida paramedic was fired after allegedly recording a patient on a medical call.

On Aug. 27, fire department paramedic Josh Granada responded to a call at a hotel near the Universal Orlando theme park.

According to his termination letter, the Orlando Fire Department employee took out his phone and made an audio recording of the patient.

Officials say Granada then shared the recording with co-workers who were not on the call. By doing so, he violated privacy laws and OFD policy.

Granada has 10 days to appeal the firing.

He was one of the first paramedics on scene during the Pulse nightclub massacre, which left 49 people dead in June 2016.
