The *Daily Herald* has published a detailed series of articles examining the Illinois Department of Public Health’s ongoing investigation into the Antioch Rescue Squad. The probe centers on allegations of misconduct involving several EMTs, including the potential loss of their licenses due to serious violations of professional and ethical standards.
State officials have confirmed that two EMTs, Kyle Shouse and Chris McBrady, are under scrutiny for alleged abuse, mistreatment of patients, and inappropriate behavior toward colleagues. The Illinois Department of Public Health is currently reviewing their conduct and will determine whether they should be allowed to continue working in emergency medical services.
According to the allegations, both Shouse and McBrady were accused of tampering with prescription medications. Specifically, they are said to have added prescription drugs like Lasix (a diuretic) and Benadryl (an antihistamine) to the food and drinks of unsuspecting EMTs during shifts at the rescue squad. Additionally, they are accused of taking prescription-only IV solutions and administering them without proper authorization—either to themselves or others.
It remains unclear if Shouse and McBrady are still employed by the Antioch Rescue Squad, but officials stated that they were active members at the time of the alleged misconduct, which reportedly occurred after 2008.
Further details from public health documents obtained by the *Daily Herald* reveal more specific accusations. Shouse is charged with arriving for duty while under the influence of alcohol and with mistreating patients. One incident involved him striking a psychiatric patient with a clipboard, yelling at another, and unnecessarily restraining a third. These actions raised serious concerns about his ability to perform his duties safely.
McBrady, on the other hand, is accused of adding Benadryl to the food and drinks of other EMTs, providing treatment without written consent, and falsifying patient care reports by falsely claiming that other EMTs were present during patient care. He is also accused of throwing a patient’s walker, using offensive language, and refusing to transport a patient who later suffered an aneurysm—a decision that could have had life-threatening consequences.
In addition to Shouse and McBrady, a third EMT, Ethan Bolin, faces disciplinary action. He is accused of taking a prescription-only IV solution and having another EMT administer it to him. Attempts to contact Bolin for comment were unsuccessful.
This ongoing investigation highlights serious concerns about the integrity and safety of the Antioch Rescue Squad. Residents and local authorities are closely watching as the Illinois Department of Public Health continues its review and prepares to make final decisions regarding the future of these individuals in the field of emergency medical services.
