Former EMT Alleges Toxic EMS Culture | Lexington News

Another former EMT is speaking out, alleging a toxic culture and harassment at Woodford County EMS — this time from David Sheeks, who claims he endured a hostile work environment and inappropriate conduct by paramedic David Grubb. The lawsuit, bolstered by the recent case of Naomi Branham, details disturbing incidents including racial slurs, workplace memes, and rumors spread by Grubb — all allegedly ignored or worsened by leadership. Sheeks says he reported concerns to directors but was met with dismissal and threats of investigation, ultimately forcing him to quit in late 2022. His attorney argues this reflects systemic failures and calls for urgent reform to protect dedicated first responders.
