Again, I do not see why a person who is adamantly anti-choice, would look into applying at a job that may carry out such procedures and request their employer to opt out of them.

It's like if someone were to walk into a BBQ restaurant demanding the chef to cook a vegan meal.

No one is saying the laws shouldn't protect you, but if you are applying to a job where these circumstances may arise and that you were hired knowing what the job entails, I really am not sure how the law would protect you or anyone.

Anyway I am not sure why you are so obsessed with this topic. People already shared their opinion on where you can apply for a job (like religious facilities). Let pro-choice nurses care for women who want the right to choose.

Lol obsessed? I'm sticking to the topic hun. Pls don't equate food with healthcare. You are cheapening our purposes with such comparisons. Hospitals everywhere are doing them more and more. I want to work with babies, and possibly midwife or something with infants. I know that unwanted circumstances will arise where in order to save one person another might have to be lost. I cannot avoid this possibility in a hospital setting and don't want to. I would be saving a life. But I won't be going to work at Planned Parenthood like I've said now like a million times so just drop the whole don't work where they do them idea case they do them where yiu treat illnesses, which is more so hospitals can get more funding. If you don't like this thread then leave. Quit trying to dictate.

Did you just call people who work in food service cheap? Those people service people. Much like a nurse services people. If you can read I was making an analogy and not comparing those who work in food service as nurses. But nice to know you think people who work in food service are "lesser" than other persons.

Although this is off-topic and the OP has had her question answered multiple times, I think it's important that a nurse or other healthcare professional, or in this case, a nursing student stay humble and not think they are better than others who aren't in the field. It's okay to be proud, but that statement made me sad. God forbid someone needs to take care of someone who works in something like food service and they be thought of as "lesser" or beneath them.

Lol you are trying to put words into my mouth. I work in food. And no it is not the same as being a nurse and it never will be. I think many come in here and try to make bad comparisons or in your case "analogies" just to try to make a point. I never said that the PEOPLE who work in food are less than anyone or anything. That's yiu saying that. Move on cus yiu are clearly being an agitator to the OP.

I don't think she was equating food service with healthcare, just she didn't like the comparison of comparing being against abortions to being vegan and against those who serve meat. However, I think the example was completely valid as someone who is a nurse.

Edit:

Actually, you will be surprised at how much it is like food service. I really don't think you have much room to talk about what nursing is like since you are not a nurse. I don't mean to be mean, but what are you basing your comparisons off right now? TV?

Patient satisfaction scores are everything to the hospitals right now. Hospitals are trying to bend over backwards to make patients happy. Why did most hospitals in my area move to room service and let the patients eat whenever? To help improve satisfaction. Food service and nursing are very similar fields, both are customer service now.

Your words, not mine.

i said i just dont want to help perform abortions for convenience. you sign the paperwork when they hire you so that you are not put on those cases, and there is no harm done. If the patient decides to get an abortion for convenience, i wont even be involved. So yeah, I do not care. If a nurse doesnt want to help perform a circumcision, then another one will. I wont get all bent out of shape that a different nurse is on my case.

How would you know as the nurse what their reason for the procedure is? are you going to provide the employer was are acceptable reasons for having an abortion? when are you going to find time to read the chart and interview the patient? Most areas of nursing , the nurse does not have the time?

Last what at if a patient had an illegal abortion, would you refuse them care? or would you do an audit before accepting the assignment.

We've provided a gentle and tactful redirect earlier today. However, at this time, I think the OP has the answers they came here seeking.
