Having a heart attack?
Help the patient in.
Did he just utter a microaggression?
Roll him to the curb.

 Massachusetts Hospital Announces It May Deny Care to Patients Making 'Offensive' Statements (msn.com)

One hospital in Massachusetts appears to be discarding its Hippocratic Oath in favor of protecting people's feelings. In a video circulating across social media, the Chief Medical Officer at the Milford Regional Medical Center in Massachusetts, Dr. Peter Smulowitz, warned that the facility is "committed to providing exceptional health care services to our community with dignity, compassion, and respect."
"Our patient and visitor code of conduct helps us meet this goal," he explained. "Words or actions that are disrespectful, racist, discriminatory, hostile or harassing are not welcome and will not be tolerated.”Smulowitz went on to give a long list of potential violations that could lead to a patient being denied care but added that they will be allowed to "explain [their] point of view" before a decision is made. "Examples of these include offensive comments about others’ race, ethnicity, accent, religion, gender, sexual orientation or other personal traits; refusal to see a clinician or other staff member based on these personal traits; aggressive or intimidating behavior, physical or verbal threats and assaults; sexual or vulgar words or actions; and disrupting another patient’s care or experience,” he continued.

I hope they do that and get sued. That doctor should sue or become a coroner.

So, a murdering robber will get care if shot down during a gunfight with cops.

A father with a critical stab wound will die for saying, "That *** raped my daughter."


Massachusetts is a liberal ****.
Please seat yourself.

Wanna bet this is one of those hospitals that employs a lot of African Immigrants to perform the basic nursing chores...?

Lots of Pajeet doctors straight off the boat from Bombay too...?
