If it's not a religiously affiliated facility, they need to be aware that patients and their families aren't interested in religious proselytizing while they're recovering.
My daughter came home from public school one day in first grade with a tote bag with an evangelist church's logo on it. After I took a deep breath and stepped away from the email before hitting "send", I thought I would just keep close eye and see if this was a pattern or some random event. We never got anything religious after that so maybe it was some staff member who had some excess bags and gave them away.
But at the rehab facility, it's likely a pattern of proselytizing.
The last few hotels I've stayed at didn't have bibles slipped into the night stands. Maybe people complained or used them as toilet paper? Whatever the reason, I'm glad not to see them anymore.
That might work in a blue state, but I am in the south full of religious nuts. I am not going to do anything to jeopardize her safety. She and I don't even share our social media pages, not that she uses hers much. I see her everyday and call her every day anyway. Yea but I agree, religion preys off the vulnerable.
Well, you do what you need to do to help your mom get better. As I mentioned, I'm sure this is your paramount concern, as it should be. You might be surprised though - I'm sure you're not the only atheist staying under the radar in your red state.
