Hospital Told Nurses: Assist Abortions or Lose Your Job
A dozen nurses have filed a lawsuit against their employer, the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, which told them they had to either assist in abortions or risk losing their jobs.
The Alliance Defense Fund filed a lawsuit on behalf of 12 nurses in New Jersey who work for a hospital receiving federal health funds who were told they needed to assist abortions or be terminated from their employment. The mandate violates several federal conscience laws and state law, ADF senior legal counsel Matt Bowman tells LifeNews.
"Pro-life nurses shouldn't be forced to assist in abortions against their beliefs," Bowman told LifeNews. "No less than 12 nurses have encountered threats to their jobs at this hospital ever since a policy change required them to participate in the abortions regardless of their religious objections. That is flatly illegal."
According to a copy of the complaint ADF sent LifeNews, the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey was "demanding that the Nurses must assist abortions in violation of their religious objections or they will be terminated. Defendants have illegally coerced some of the Nurses to train to assist abortions already, and Defendants are presently scheduling the others to do so."
"UMDNJ's coercion of the Nurses is a blatant violation of federal and state law, which explicitly prohibit UMDNJ from penalizing employees including Plaintiffs because they object to assisting abortions," the complaint says. Ref. Source 9
They Said NO: When 12 Nurses Refused to Do Abortions
Nurses in a big city hospital never know what a day's shift will bring - straightforward cases or medical miracles, major crises or minor first aid. Whatever her station, whatever the duty of the moment, a nurse tries to ready herself for anything. But some things, you just can't see coming.
It was Beryl Otieno Ngoje's turn to work the desk in the Same Day Surgery Unit at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), in Newark. She was busy with the usual administrative duties - filing charts, handing out forms to the patients, answering visitors" questions - when another nurse hurried up beside her. Ref. Source 3
