Sacred Heart nurses hold Spokane rally amid contract talks

Published by THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW on 2/25/19 (Source)

In the bitter cold Monday afternoon at Riverfront Park, about 200 nurses rallied for better staffing, benefits and patient safety at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center.

The rally stems from seven contract bargaining sessions over four months between the Washington State Nurses Association and Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center, which the nurses say have gained little traction.
