Providence Nurses Conduct Informational Picket

Frontline nurses who work at Providence Hood River conducted an informational picket on Wednesday afternoon outside the hospital, prior to a short rally at nearby Jackson Park.  The nurses are represented by the Oregon Nurses Association, which represents more than 4,000 frontline nurses working in nine Providence Health System facilities from Portland to Medford.  Providence is Oregon’s largest healthcare system and one of the state’s largest corporations.  Nurses at Providence Hood River began bargaining with management in December.  Along with wage and health benefit increases, the ONA says the nurses are also seeking an increase in the number of registered nurses at the hospital, and better workplace safety technology.
