A registered nurse at Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center in Lincoln, Ill. released a statement regarding a tweet posted by Shawna Harris. Harris wrote that she prescribes meds and can also “choose not to prescribe them.”
“So…from now on…if you are a white male who votes conservative, your penis needs to ask God for the power to rise. No more Viagra.”
That tweet was shared with Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center who said Harris has resigned.
“The APRN apologized for the actions,” the statement said.
Sarah Bush Lincoln President and CEO Jerry Esker said the mission of the facility is to provide exceptional care to all.
“That means we provide care to everyone regardless of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, income, national origin, cultural personal values, beliefs and preferences,” Esker said. “Our mission is woven throughout our fabric and discriminatory practices are not tolerated.”
