“Why do Planned Parenthood’s
abortion centers get all the money while non-abortion centers fall apart?”
Lola* knew the answer to her question but was using it to
educate me about the Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, Planned
Parenthood clinic that she, along with several
other staff members, recently quit in disgust.
Lola emailed me a couple days ago,
having learned about my blog, ironically enough, from bosses who mocked it during
meetings. “We read your stuff and thought you were all crazy,” Lola said. “But
not any more.”
Lola and I have now spoken a few
times by phone. She also sent me some pictures. The Stroudsburg clinic doesn’t
commit abortions. Lola concluded this is why it fell to the bottom of the
upkeep pile.
For instance: “Every single one of
our chairs is stained with blood or vaginal secretions,” Lola said. “The
Department of Health mandated that PP abortion sites have waiting room
chairs that are nonpermeable, so this wouldn’t be a problem. Is the Department
aware PP’s nonabortion centers still have the upholstered chairs? We asked
multiple times for nonpermeable chairs but were told it wasn’t in the budget.
Patients sometimes sat on the floor rather than on infected chairs.”
