Kadlec nurses rallied Friday afternoon in Richland for safe staffing levels, paid time-off benefits and protection from violence as contract negotiations after passed the six-month mark.
“We won’t allow Providence to put profits over nurse and patient safety at Kadlec,” said a release from Washington State Nurses Association. “If Providence execs refuse to commit to safe staffing levels or tell nurses to give up even more of their rest time, they will put patients’ safety at risk.”
