Capital Medical Center RN - We Are United for a Strong Contract
/
Our Bargaining Team (Left to Right):
Dennis Verellen (ICU/PCU)
Elisabeth Hildebrand (Cath Lab)
Bonnie Verellen (Labor & Delivery)
Carol Cairone (OR)
Cindy Dixon (PACU)
We had our first bargaining session and led on our vision of what a great Capital Medical Center looks like. With your input we presented our priorities to MultiCare management and told them that our team is united for:
Competitive Wages that recruit and retain workers
Safe Staffing for us and our patients
Safe working conditions for all our coworkers
Raising standards to meet other MultiCare Units.
“As we began bargaining, we shared with management the important of raising us to the standards of other MultiCare units up north. Just because we are in Olympia doesn’t mean we deserve less than others. We deserve the same services, benefits and resources as others.”
— Dennis Verellen
“We had a successful start to our bargaining coming to some agreements right out the gate. With your support and involvement I believe we will have a successful bargain and win a strong contract.”
— Carol Cairone
Together we can win!
