SOARING PROFITS UNSAFE STAFFING LEVELS LESS HEALTHCARE UNFAIR WAGES
We are hospital, hospice, homecare and mental health workers committed to making Sutter Health provide better care for its patients and better salaries, benefits and working conditions for its caregivers.
“A supervisor once scolded me for my 'lack of productivity' after I held up the phone so family members who lived on the East Coast could say their goodbyes to their dying matriarch. That’s when we knew we needed a union.”
"Sutter's greed is costing us good caregivers and our patients aren't getting the care they need."
"What kind of healthcare company tries to make medical care more expensive for its caregivers? If we didn't form a union, we wouldn't still have a fully employer-paid health plan."
"Sutter expects us to see more patients in less time — less time to provide quality care. We, on the front line, are fighting to have a say in the daily care we provide our patients, prioritizing their health and quality of life while balancing ours."
“When we’re working 16-hour shifts because we're not being paid enough, we're tired, so that puts patients in danger and that puts us in danger.”
"I'm proud to be part of a union that doesn't let Sutter get away with shortchanging its patients or its workers."
