Report Details Troubles at Pennsylvania Abortion Center

By Maria Gallagher, Legislative Director
Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation


We now have a better idea of what led state officials finally to crack down on a troubled central Pennsylvania abortion center.

A report on the Pennsylvania Health Department website dated July 8th offers details of the myriad of health and safety violations found at the Hillcrest Women’s Medical Center in Harrisburg in June.

The failures included:

• Outdated medication and supplies

• Lack of documentation that a consultant physician had proper credentials for advising staff to ensure satisfactory treatment of patients

• Medication stored in refrigerators with inappropriate temperatures

• Failure to provide a sanitary environment. Deficiencies included ceiling tiles stained with an unidentified brown substance, torn padding on exam tables, and a front yard with grass measuring two to three feet high.
