"This bill prohibits a healthcare provider from being required to participate in, or pay for, a healthcare procedure, treatment, or service that violates the conscience of the healthcare provider."
This means a Healthcare provider can LEGALLY deny anyone access to safe medical care because of the providers personal beliefs. Should a healthcare provider chose to deny medical treatment for their personal opinions and beliefs, they are directly violating their Hipocratic OATH. Acting on their personal interest is ROBBING their patients of autonomy.
Just because something is legal, does not make it ethical. Period.
Here is where I have always stood and will continue to stand in regards to providing healthcare services to Clarksville TN:
Nine Worlds Healing will never deny medical care to someone based on religious choice, political affiliation, sexual orientation, nationality, race, or gender. Ever. Everyone will be treated fairly here. This is a safe place for everyone.
This will remain my FAFO Policy (previously The Safe Space Policy)
This is a safe space for every single person. ALL sexual orientations, races, nationalities, genders, religions, political parties, etc are welcome in this space. We have a zero tolerance policy for hate speech and discrimination in this sacred space. Violation of the FAFO Policy will result in immediate termination of any session and the full service charged to your card on file with a 20% tip which will be used for a donation in your name to support the group being discriminated against.
