Operation Rescue<\/a> has received 911 records of an alarming incident that took place in August 2019 at an abortion facility in the Bronx, New York. Paramedics were called to Dr. Emily’s Women’s Health Center on August 17 when a female patient experienced at least three seizures within 30 minutes of receiving a surgical abortion. The woman apparently had a known history of seizures and the abortion facility was ill-equipped to handle such a high-risk patient.<\/p>\n

Despite the alarming situation, the 911 caller – an employee of the abortion facility – didn’t have basic information at hand, such as the woman’s age or condition. The uncomfortable 911 call was punctuated by long periods of silence in which the caller was forced to go find out facts about the patient’s condition, at one point putting the phone down and walking away. The delay of such crucial information likely slowed down the arrival time of the responding ambulance.<\/p>\n
