Tanya Jordan, a nurse in the Catholic Medical Center’s Emergency Department, was fired while undergoing chemotherapy in her fight against breast cancer by Catholic Medical Center. As a Catholic institution, its mission is “to provide health, healing and hope…compassion, and respect…as part of Christ's healing ministry through the Catholic Church.” We, the undersigned, request that CMC act in accordance with its stated principals and rehire Tanya.

November 8, 2014

The stories coming to light about how Tanya was treated during her illness continue to reveal a profound disconnect between the values this institution claims to uphold and the way they actually handle their employees. I am currently working to ensure our concerns reach the administrative board directly. Your commitment to this cause keeps the pressure focused where it belongs.

November 8, 2014

Reaching this level of support confirms that many people find the dismissal of a nurse undergoing treatment to be deeply inconsistent with the hospital mission. The growing momentum suggests a shared expectation that institutions must honor their values even when it requires difficult or compassionate choices.

Losing their job should not be one of concerns by employees as they fight horrific diseases such as this. Losing your job squashes not only your income but potentially health benefits. This is a dishonorable act.
