A video showing nurses and medics belly dancing in the intensive care unit of a private hospital in the Mediterranean province of Antalya has caused consternation in Turkey.

The footage shows the hospital workers dancing while tending to a patient on Dec. 23, 2013, but only just emerged.

The manager of the hospital, Hüseyin Sarı, issued a statement after the video went viral on social media, saying he saw the video shortly after the incident and they had dismissed the personnel shown in the video.

Sarı also said they had informed the provincial directorate of the Health Ministry about the personnel.
