A selfie too far? Sick paramedic who took snaps of DYING patients sacked by health bosses
A PARAMEDIC has been sacked by health bosses after she took 'selfies' - in front of DYING patients.
Tatiana Kulikova, 25, posted a series of gruesome snaps on social media while she was on duty in an ambulance.
One showed her giving the finger to an accident victim with the caption: "Another moron."
Another self-portrait, which shows her sticking up two fingers to a heart attack patient, was titled: "How I hate my job."
Now health chiefs in the central Russian city of Kirov have fired her after she admitted taking the pictures.
She shows a callous disregard for the welfare of her patients
Local health campaigner Artem Golubev, 40, said: "It is clear that while she was taking these photographs she was not looking after her patients."
He added: "She shows a callous disregard for the welfare of her patients, some of whom died after those pictures were taken.
"I would not be surprised if their families sue both her and the emergency services."
A spokesperson for the city's emergency services said: "As soon as we were alerted to these images online we suspended the paramedic in question. After an investigation was carried out, the employee was fired."
Ms Kulikova has made no comment following the incident.
