Write A Letter for Birthing Options...

Remember our protests last year? against the ban of CNM"s at Pleasant Valley Hospital?
Well the ban is still in effect, we are figuring out what the delay is, and what if any action we will take at this time. But in the meantime, please let the CEO know that you are still watching.

For info on the Midwifery Ban and BAC's actions last year see our website: http://www.birthactioncoalition.org/6.html

Please write to:

Mr. John Bibby
President and CEO
Pleasant Valley Hospital
St. John's Regional Medical Center
1600 North Rose Avenue
Oxnard, CA  93030

and to

Ms. Laurie Eberst
President and CEO
Catholic Healthcare West Ventura County
St. John's Regional Medical Center
1600 North Rose Avenue

In your letter mention that you are a member and/or supporter of the Birth Action Coalition and that you hope the ban will be lifted soon.
