Equal Access and Opportunity

Equal Access and Opportunity

It is the policy of MCES to admit and treat all patients without regard to race, color, sex, sexual preference, national origin, religious creed, or disability. The same requirements for admission are applied to all.

Patients are assigned within the hospital without regard to race, color, sexual preference, national origin, religious creed, disability or limited English proficiency. There is no distinction in eligibility for, or in the manner of providing, any patient service provided by or through the hospital. Furthermore, patients shall not be referred to those facilities which are known to the hospital to be in noncompliance with the provisions of the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act.

MCES will contact corresponding appropriate agencies to assist with translative or interpretive services. MCES is an equal opportunity employer and considers all applicants without regard to race, color, age, sex, national origin, religious creed, disability, sexual orientation, or limited English proficiency. Complaints of discrimination may be filed with the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Office of Civil Rights, Department of Public Works Bureau of Equal Opportunity and the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission.
