Enloe RN s hold picket for a fair contract - 5/14/2021
Registered nurses at Enloe Medical Center in Chico, Calif., represented by the California Nurses Association (CNA), on May 27 overwhelmingly ratified a new three-year labor contract that nurses say will provide important patients care improvements, as well as gains in long-term benefits to help with retention of nurses.
“Even though the pandemic brought with it unique factors that impacted bargaining this year, we were able to achieve a contract that is fair and equitable,” said Michael Hannan, an RN in the critical care unit. “Our new contract strengthens our resources and response to infectious disease and will protect nurses through this current pandemic and on into the future.”
