Board of Health,
The standards are important! We need healthcare in Virginia to be performed in safe, clean, sanity environments. Period. Abortion "clinics" should be held to the same safety standards as any other outpatient surgery center. We should not compromise womens health by requiring less of a womens clinic than we do any other type of clinic - especially not just so that Planned Parenthood can reduce costs and make money. We are sadly helping them with that enough already. Cynthia Hellman
