A paramedic named James Birdseye was removed from the register after he inappropriately interacted with a student during a medical emergency. After the student unexpectedly began to bleed, Birdseye conducted a clinical examination without consent, exposing her and making lewd comments. His actions were deemed predatory, exploiting the vulnerable situation for sexual gratification. Following the incident in June 2019, he faced quick suspension and resigned months later after an internal investigation. The tribunal highlighted the significant breach of trust and ethical standards expected in medical professions.
