Victor Valley Global Medical Center Stories
Sep 11, 2015, 10:44 AM
Victor Valley Community Hospital: "The nurses and staff at this hospital feel that it's perfectly ok to refuse medical services to people based on their personal religious beliefs. I am shocked that a business like a hospital would allow this to happen. I will never go near this hospital again, knowing that I could be refused care and sent home in a critical situation because nurses, who refuse doctor's orders, are allowed to refuse treatment based on their personal beliefs. This is not how hospitals should be run. " - Heather
