It had only been a week ago that Janie had been so excited about being hired for her first job as a medical assistant at the women's wellness clinic in town. During her interview, the office manager had asked her several questions pertaining to injection skills and her ability to handle upset or angry patients. Janie felt that she had given suitable answers to all the interviewer's questions. When asked if Janie had any questions, she had asked about several policies that the clinic had in place for their employees, such as workplace attire, company sick days, and weekend work schedules.

Now, just 1 week into her new job, Janie feels completely unprepared to handle the situation that now confronts her. To her dismay, she learns that the clinic routinely performs legal abortions. A devout Catholic, Janie had not thought about the clinic performing abortions nor the fact that, as an employee, she would be called upon to be a participant in the process. What should Janie have done differently? What should she do now?
