Rally for Striking Nurses in Worcester on Saturday, June 12 at noon

6/9/2021

Dear Members,

The nurses need our union support!

Join Senator Elizabeth Warren, Congressman Jim McGovern and St. Vincent Hospital nurses for a Solidarity Rally in Worcester on Saturday, June 12 at noon at the Nurse's Strike Headquarters, 11 E. Central Street, Worcester as nurses fight to protect patients from unsafe staffing conditions.

SVH nurses are entering their 3rd month on strike, facing off against the giant for-profit Tenet Healthcare, which is based in Dallas and made more than $400 million in profits last year and $97 million during the first quarter of this year – during a pandemic. Nurses are calling for safer care conditions as they report increased patient injuries and delays in treatment due to excessive nurse-patient assignments.
