Safe staffing = Safe care.

When caregivers want to improve patient care. Unless Kaiser keeps up with other employers, staff dwindles and wait times will grow.

It’s time to put patients before profits.

Profits before patients? That’s what’s happening at Kaiser.

CEO Greg Adams and executives are sitting on billions, while refusing to invest in the caregivers and patients.

Healthcare workers are standing up for patients, not profits.

We’re fighting for safe staffing, fair wages & the time to care for every patient. Time for Kaiser to get serious about bargaining an agreement that ensures retention and recruitment of skilled healthcare providers.

the hardest part of living in Portland is having your house burn down every single night and then having to rebuild it during the day. the amount of money i spend just in drywall is insane.

Trump: Portland is burning to the ground—insurrectionists all over the place. The politicians are afraid for their lives. That’s the only reason they say there’s nothing happening.

Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Friends, come join me on the strike line!!

Oregon Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals (AFT 5017) @ofnhp.bsky.social · 11d

After months of negotiating, Kaiser has forced our members to file a ten-day notice of strike: we will walk out on a work stoppage on October 14th.

The issues are simple, we need fair wages, safe staffing, and a great future for care. #onevoiceonefuture

Kaiser used to stand for excellence in healthcare. Now executives are proposing cuts that mean longer waits and shorter visits. Safe staffing = safe care.

📩 Send a letter to Kaiser CEO Greg Adams and demand he protect our care: actionnetwork.org/letters/an-o...

My first time in the stadium was 2008, and not for soccer…it was, and still is, a beautiful stadium.
