Union RNs Fight for Safe Staffing
On Monday July 10th, 60+ HPAE members joined the Local 5058 and 5138 bargaining committees to demand safe staffing. Patient care suffers when management fails to abide by nurse-to patient ratios at all times and ensure units are staffed with skilled, experienced nurses. The nurses who attended the bargaining session shared their experiences of how difficult it is to provide quality patient care when we are understaffed.
