March 2016
LAKEWOOD REGISTERED NURSES ASSOCIATION
NEGOTIATIONS BEGIN
Negotiations for our new contract will begin in April. Initial bargaining dates have been scheduled for April 12 and 13.
During negotiations, we will meet with representatives of Tenet Healthcare to bargain over issues that affect us, our families, and patients. Among other topics, we will strive to improve:
- Patient care
- Staffing and workload
- Wages
- Breaks
- Benefits
- Education and training
- And other important matters
This is our opportunity to improve our contract and working conditions.
“A strong contract does not just happen on its own! It takes all of us working together, talking to our colleagues and participating in the bargaining process. All Lakewood RNs are encouraged and welcome to attend bargaining sessions.”
- Veronica Mendoza-Balbin, RN, LRNA President
