I sent an email to Valley Medical Center a couple of weeks ago, telling them that I found their "No Firearms" policy ridiculous. His email didn't touch any topics that I mentioned in my email. Especially the ones regarding "The bad guys don't care about policies."
Here's the email:
"Dear Mr. Braun:
By way of introduction, my name is Jeff Dosch, Security Manager for Valley Medical Center.
We appreciate you contacting us regarding Valley Medical Center’s Weapons Free Policy. This policy is designed to help ensure that the delivery of service to our patients occurs in a safe environment, and to enhance workplace safety for Valley Medical Center employees.
We are sorry you felt offended that the policy also applies to those who may be licensed to legally carry a concealed weapon, however Valley Medical Center has a huge public safety protection issue with the multitude of patients here at any given time. Similar policies are enforced throughout healthcare facilities in Washington State, and we believe that notification of the Weapons Free Policy demonstrates our commitment to providing care in the safest environment possible.
Respectfully,
Jeff Dosch, Security Manager
Valley Medical Center
425-228-3440 ext. 5976"
