Massachusetts Hospital Announces It May Deny Care to Patients Making ‘Offensive’ Statements

Sharing is Caring!

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.

“Everyone should expect a safe, caring and inclusive environment in all our spaces. 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.

I did not think that was legal, Even murders and rapists get treated before they face trial or go to jail.

Question is, who defines what is offensive………..

Politically correct speech is Newspeak by another name.
