Sky News Investigates: Sexual misconduct within the ambulance service

Warning: Report contains descriptions of sexual assault which viewers might find distressing. A senior ambulance boss has told Sky News he wants to see more paramedics sacked for sexual harassment, as they work to stamp out inappropriate behaviour in the organisation. Jason Killens, who runs the Welsh Ambulance service and the Association of Ambulance Chief Execs, admitted the sector has let victims down. Exclusive data shows 1 in 5 of the sexual misconduct complaints made to the Paramedic’s Regulator last year were for harassment against patients and members of the public. Sky's Rachael Venables spoke to some of workers and patients who have faced sexual abuse in the ambulance service.
