Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

If a womans pregnancy puts her life at risk, we count on you, the Department of Health, to provide for the safe medical attention she needs. Please establish, maintain and enforce the same standards of hygiene and equipment provided in a hospital - sterilized equipment, emergency equipment, building infrastructure to support healthy standards and emergencies. As a profit-turning health agency, Planned Parenthood clearly has the funds. Even if they did not have the funds, non-compliance would be no justification for offering services which endanger womens lives. They should meet basic health standards the same as any clinic or hospital.Thank you for your intervention in this life-saving issue. Susan Brown
