FEDERAL WAY, Wash. — A South King Fire and Rescue (SKFR) firefighter is on probation with the state Department of Health after sending a Facebook message with “sexual innuendo” to a woman he treated during an emergency response earlier that day in February 2012, according to documents.
The state department concluded its investigation on Jan. 29, placing Brandon Church’s credential to practice as an emergency medical technician in the state of Washington on probation for one year.
The state department also ordered Church — who is the son of fire Chief Al Church — to complete a minimum of six hours of continuing education in the area of ethics and to reimburse costs of $1,451 to the Office of Emergency Medical Services and Trauma System Programs, the disciplining authority that investigated the complaint. His supervisor is also required to submit quarterly performance evaluation reports to the department.
