Woman injured during abortion at troubled Planned Parenthood Omaha
A transcript of a 911 call received by Operation Rescue reveals that a 38-year-old woman was injured at Planned Parenthood in Omaha, Nebraska, on February 3, 2025. The abortion injury comes amid reports that this particular Planned Parenthood facility is facing staffing troubles and high turnover rates.
According to Operation Rescue, the injured woman was undergoing a dilation and curettage (D&C) abortion, when she experienced “heavier bleeding.” In an effort to determine the severity of the injury, the dispatcher asked the caller if the patient’s bleeding was “pouring” or “squirting,” but the caller “chuckled” and said she wasn’t “all the way down at that end” to determine the level of bleeding.
The D&C abortion is a first trimester abortion procedure in which the woman’s cervix is dilated with rods of increasing size and a hollow tube called a cannula is inserted through the opening. Powerful suction is then used to remove the preborn child, tearing him apart limb by limb in the process. Risks of the procedure include possible damage to maternal organs, lacerations, infection, bleeding, and even death.
News of this abortion injury comes on the heels of an exposé published in the Flatwater Free Press, detailing many problems at the Omaha Planned Parenthood facility. One nurse told the news outlet that she had been forced to participate in surgical abortion procedures on numerous occasions, despite the fact that doing so violated standard operating procedures.

“Chaotic management,” “high turnover rates,” and “insufficient training” were also cited as problems at the facility.
“It’s no surprise a woman was injured at this Planned Parenthood,” said Sarah Neely, Chief Operating Officer for Operation Rescue. “This kind of chaos among employees and Planned Parenthood’s out-of-touch executives is rampant across the organization right now, and it creates a very dangerous situation for women already seeking a very dangerous procedure.”
Despite the fact that Planned Parenthood facilities across the country regularly harm women to such an extent that emergency personnel need to be called, the corporation receives nearly $800M in taxpayer funding each year.
