Registered nurses at Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital in Santa Clarita, Calif., will hold a community rally on Saturday, April 26, to protest the administration’s refusal to address RNs’ ongoing concerns about safe staffing and safe working conditions.

As California struggles with record infections, hospitalizations and deaths, it’s hard to imagine that hospital industry executives, with the cooperation of state regulators, would come up with a plan to make conditions worse. Sadly, they have.
Nurses know that passing legislation to create CalCare is of life-and-death urgency and the most critical step towards guaranteeing health care for all Californians. That’s why we don’t support the approach proposed in SB 770, which would put the bureaucratic cart before the health care horse.
