Board of Health,

Please keep these common sense regulations which include:

·         Maintaining medical equipment, supplies and drugs to manage potential emergencies

·         Infection prevention

·         Patient rights and patient services such as a process for registering complaints against the abortion facility to the Virginia Dept of Health, having a staff member certified to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation on-site for emergency care when abortions are performed.

·         Policies and procedures outlining criteria for discharge from anesthesia care

All of the above inform and protect women from harm!  These are absolutely necessary for the safety of all women.  Please ensure a safe medical environment for all! 

Thank you, Maria
