At a conference called “Abortion: The Inside Story” sponsored by The Pro-Life Action League, former abortion worker Hellen Pendley spoke about her time in the abortion industry. Pendley worked for an abortion chain in Georgia, which had 12 different abortion facilities located throughout the United States. When Pendley applied for a job at the abortion facility, she was asked two questions. The first was, “Are you pro-choice?” Pendley answered in the affirmative. The second was, “Can you handle the fact that this is a business?” The second question would set the tone for Pendley’s time at the abortion facility. She soon became aware that the facility put profit over patient safety and comfort. She learned that the facility’s single-minded focus on making money endangered the safety and even the lives of the women who came to them.
Pendley, who had a medical background, was initially shocked by the lack of life support equipment and emergency care supplies in the facility. She says the facility…
had absolutely no life support equipment, we had no crash cart. We didn’t have any of those things in the clinic, and the state of Georgia where I’m from and where I operated this particular clinic, we were regulated by the state [but] the state didn’t require that we had any life support, [they] didn’t require that we had any recovery room equipment though we did perform abortions under general anesthesia.
