Last week on Wednesday, Dec. 16, 2020, registered nurses at Rideout Memorial Hospital, who are represented by the California Nurses Association, overwhelming ratified a new three-year contract which nurses say will provide important patients care improvements as well as gains in wages and benefits to help with recruitment and retention of nurses.
“Even though bargaining was done virtually due to the pandemic, we still remained just as steadfast and came out on the other side with a contract that benefits nurses and our patients,” said Andrew Holley, an emergency department RN. “For the new contract, we were able to expand patient safety committee language.”
