The Behavioral Health Center at Carroll Hospital in Westminster, Maryland, instituted a policy by which transgender patients could be roomed with patients of the opposite sex.
The policy also notes that"complaints from another patient regarding a roommate’s gender identity or expression do not constitute grounds for an exception to the room assignment policy."
"The 2022 policy cited for accommodating transgender individuals applies only for the Behavioral Health Center at Carroll Hospital," a spokesperson for the hospital told Fox News Digital."It is based on nationally recognized standards to promote the safe care of transgendered individuals and follows Maryland state guidelines for people who identify in that group."
Former University of Pennsylvania associate dean Dr. Stanley Goldfarb told Fox News Digital that the center's policy"is just the latest example of the real harms caused by the infiltration ofinto medical institutions and the danger of allowing politics to supersede the best treatment for patients." Dr. Stanley Goldfarb previously speaks with Fox News Digital about filing complaints against five medical schools.
