Ohio abortion facility botches abortion for second time in four weeks

Recording of a 911 call obtained by Operation Rescue reveals that a woman began hemorrhaging after an abortion at Women’s Med Center in Ohio, and was taken to the hospital via ambulance. Women’s Med Center in Dayton had another 911 call just four weeks ago for a woman who was seizing and unconscious.

In the most recent 911 call, an employee of Women’s Med Center contacted emergency responders on March 7, 2019, requesting assistance for a 26-year-old patient who was hemorrhaging following a surgical abortion. According to Operation Rescue:

The woman was treated by the emergency responders then rushed to Miami Valley Hospital in an ambulance that used lights and sirens during the transport.  The entire incident from dispatch to arrival at the hospital emergency room took 31 minutes, a total of 15 of which were spent in transit to and from the abortion facility.

In a statement, Margie Christie, executive director of Dayton Right to Life, said, “The reckless actions of this so-called ‘healthcare’ facility continues to harm women. In just the last 3 years, this facility has had four 9-1-1 calls and has been investigated by the State of Ohio for treating a patient without consent. It is time for this community to speak up and say ‘enough is enough.’”

Women’s Med Center is owned by the notorious abortionist Martin Haskell, who developed the horrific partial-birth abortion method that was banned under federal law in 2003. The facility was previously not operating, as the Ohio Department of Health revoked the facility’s license in 2016. Haskell successfully sued, but the facility was again ordered to close in 2018, when a judge upheld the Ohio Department of Health’s decision. Operation Rescue reports that a hearing on Haskell’s appeal of the 2018 decision was held on March 12, 2019. While the decision is under appeal, the facility remains open.

While the state tries to close down this facility, another woman has suffered a life-threatening emergency under its “care.” This facility makes it clear, once again, that abortion takes the lives of preborn babies and endangers women.
