(Ord. 16-75. Passed 3-3-75.)

An abortion otherwise permitted by law shall be performed only in a hospital or by a licensed physician in a facility which provides the following standards and procedures which must be met and adhered to:

(a) Written verification by two physicians, one of whom may be the physician performing the abortion, of the diagnosis of pregnancy and duration of pregnancy shall be made. Both physicians shall be qualified for diagnosis of such condition and shall verify that they have thoroughly examined the patient at least once prior to the performance of the abortion.

(b) There shall be a recorded pre-operative history and physical examination particularly directed to identification of pre-existing or concurrent illnesses or drug sensitivities that may have a bearing on the operative procedures or the anesthesia.

(c) Laboratory procedures as are usually required for a hospital admission, including blood type and Rh factor, shall be followed.

(d) A receiving facility where the patient may be prepared and receive necessary pre- operative medication and observation prior to the procedure shall be provided.

(e) An operating room shall be provided which is properly equipped to safely conduct the abortion procedure and to assure the availability on the premises of adequate blood, oxygen, anesthesia, resuscitation equipment and standby ambulance service to handle complications and emergency situations which could occur during the procedure. Proper anesthesia service shall be administered by a licensed physician.

(g) A recovery facility shall be provided which is staffed with at least one Registered Nurse in attendance at all times, in which the patient shall be observed for a twenty-four hour post-operative period. Adequate blood transfusion facilities must be so available that an emergency transfusion can be given in this facility at any time within this twenty-four hour period.

(h) The facility shall provide pre-operative and post-operative psychological counseling by an individual appropriately qualified in the field of psychology. Written verification shall be submitted of both the pre-operative and post-operative counseling sessions and shall include the patient's reasons for desiring the abortion and alternatives presented to the patient. Such report shall be kept in the permanent records.

(i) Written post-operative instructions shall be given the patient and arrangements shall be made for a post-operative follow-up examination within one month after the abortion. Examination by a certified pathologist of all pathological specimens shall be made. Human remains shall be disposed of in a humanitarian, legal and dignified manner.

This registry shall be maintained by the Health Department and shall include recording by code numbers, the patients who have been aborted and any complications which resulted.

(k) The usual informed consent, including the operative permit signed by the pregnant woman and her parents if she is a legal minor, shall be obtained.

(l) The external identification and promotion of such facility shall conform to the provisions of the code of ethics of the national professional organizations of those physicians performing services within the facility.

EDITOR'S NOTE

The arrangement and numbering of the Codified Ordinances into component codes, titles, chapters and sections are based on an adaptation of the decimal numbering system which is similar to that used in the Ohio Revised Code, and in accord with the best accepted practice in instituting a codification. Each section is self-identifying as to code, chapter and section number. For example, 305.06 indicates that the code number is 3, the chapter number is 305 (or the 5th chapter within code 3), and the section number is .06. The code and chapter numbers appear left of the decimal, with the code number preceding the first two digits left of the decimal, and the chapter number being all digits left of the decimal. The section number appears right of the decimal. As another example, 113.10 indicates the code number is 1, the chapter number is 113 (or the 13th chapter within code 1), and the section number is .10.

This numbering system has the advantage of inherent flexibility in allowing for an almost endless amount of expansion. Codes, titles and chapters initially are odd-numbered, thus reserving the use of even numbers for future legislation. Sections within chapters are consecutively numbered, except that penalty provisions are usually assigned the number .99 as used in the Revised Code. Newly created sections subsequent to the original codification may be indicated by three digits right of the decimal in the event the law properly belongs between two consecutively numbered sections. For example, newly created 575.061, 575.062 and 575.063 follow 575.06 and precede 575.07 to be placed in their logical position.

Section histories enable a user to trace the origin of the law contained in the section. The history indicates the derivation by reference to either its passage date and ordinance number originally assigned to it at that time, or to its inclusion in any prior code. Sections without histories indicate that the section contains new matter which was ordained by the Adopting Ordinance which enacts the Codified Ordinances.

The Comparative Section Table is included to show the disposition of every ordinance included in the Codified Ordinances. It indicates whether a given ordinance was consolidated with another into one section or split into two or more sections. Cross references direct the user to subject matter reasonably related to material contained within a given chapter.
