Joining a health care union
It’s about working together instead of going it alone.
If you're like most people who work in a hospital, chances are you want more input in decisions that affect your job and your patients. With the whirlwind of changes taking place in health care today, more and more hospital employees are forming unions for
a voice on the job and a way to
stand up for quality care.
Whether you're a Respiratory Therapist, a CNA, a Pharmacist or a Unit Secretary, forming a union can give you a way to work together with your co-workers instead of going it alone.
By joining together in a union, thousands of other hospital employees all across America are making their hospitals better places to work and to receive care.
In that last six years nearly 30,000 hospital employees on the West Coast have decided to stand together for their profession and their patients by forming a union with the Service Employees International Union, SEIU.
