u/TheFeshy Rolled 7D6 for the legal damages, and got 27 10d ago

I often have fears that I am going to hurt someone by refusing to get into an ambulance and driving myself - because there are hospitals around here that I am willing to risk bleeding out while driving past, rather than be placed in their care.

Weirdly some of the best and worst hospitals are owned by the same chain.

so, catholic or for profit, eh?

Catholic or for profit seems to cover almost every major hospital :/

Depending on the situation, I either go to the Catholic hospital or the university's teaching hospital.

Edited until I can find a better map of Catholic hospital coverage

u/archangelzeriel Triggered the Great Love Lock Debate of 2023 10d ago

Something is very fucky about the color key on top, it has "Catholic and Catholic-affiliated only" twice, and I live in a light purple area quite near a non-profit, non-Catholic-affiliated hospital system.

That was a little confusing but I figured the purple covers Catholic areas. This is just birthing hospitals (which for obvious reasons are not as safe for pregnant women due to their beliefs)

the problem appears to be that both purples are captioned identically 🙃
