Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

In just two years, inspections have exposed widespread health and safety violations including blood splattered exam tables and equipment, unsterilized needles, incomplete lifesaving equipment, violations of Virginia parental consent laws, an absence of reporting of possible cases of child abuse, and many more deficiencies.In light of this progress, please uphold the standards for any facility performing these or any other invasive procedures...
