Morphine Prince 109,645 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The Trump administration appears poised to roll back ObamaCare's anti-discrimination protections for transgender patients, a move that has activist groups girding for a fight. A proposed rule from the Department of Health and Human Services is expected to be released in the coming weeks or months that opponents say would make it easier for doctors and hospitals to deny treatment to transgender patients and women who have had abortions. The proposed rule is expected to roll back a controversial anti-discrimination provision buried within ObamaCare. Religious providers say they expect the Trump administration's rule would merely reinforce their right not to provide treatment that's against their beliefs.

ALGAYDO 35,046 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The fact that someone could literally be DYING, and a doctor/nurse/hospital as a whole, whatever, can refuse to conduct services that would save your life, JUST FOR BEING TRANS OR A WOMAN WITH A PREVIOUS ABORTION, is just beyond disgusting.

What the hell health care isn't about your beliefs. something I was taught in school is that no matter who you are and who the person is, doctors and nurses should give the same treatment to everyone and be patient.

Exactly. I just hope no one will let people die because of the risk of loosing their job. Someone who's there to give health care should be fully committed to save lives. oh god I'm having a moment rn just I can't The night sky tells all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. When I became a nurse, I took an oath to always set aside my beliefs when it comes to patient care. Trust me I've some across patients where it was REALLY hard to set aside my beliefs but I did it anyway because everyone deserves treatment regardless of race, religion, etc I love you monsters. I'd be unfixably broken without you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
