CLEARWATER — A Manatee County registered nurse is suing an ambulance service company, alleging negligence caused injuries to the plaintiff.

Carline Desir filed a complaint Aug. 3 in Pinellas County Circuit Court against PMP Successor LLC as successor to Paramedics Plus LLC t/a Sunstar Paramedics, alleging the defendant failed to act reasonably.

According to the complaint, on June 3, 2017, while working as a registered nurse at an inpatient mental health facility in Pinellas County, Desir met PMP Successor's paramedics at the first of two locked doors of the facility. 

Desir says as she was about to unlock the entrance door with a key, suddenly and without warning a PMP paramedic employee standing behind her reached over her head and forcefully pulled the door while her hand was holding the key that was in the lock of the door. 

As a result of the accident, Desir says she suffered bodily injury, disability, disfigurement, and medical expenses. 

The plaintiff alleges PMP Successor failed to allow Desir to enter the facility prior to attempting to open the door and failed to properly observe conditions prior to acting.

Desir seeks trial by jury, damages that exceed $15,000 and all other appropriate relief. She is represented by attorneys Jamie Seath Rosenberg and Jonathan M. Diamond of Jodat Law Group PA in Sarasota.

Pinellas County Circuit Court case number 18C5109
