Cooley Dickinson VNA & Hospice Nurses to Hold Informational Picket

The Registered Nurses at Cooley Dickinson VNA & Hospice will be picketing in
front of the agency on Thursday, June 19 to highlight the lack of movement
in their protracted negotiations. The RNs, represented by the Massachusetts
Nurses Association, have been in negotiations for nearly a year, beginning
last August. Management continues to offer a very small wage increase
despite the facility showing a profit of over $10 million in the last 15
months. An equitable contract must be in place for their agency to be able
to retain and recruit experienced nurses. Please pass this notice along to
anyone you know who lives in the area.

"Without good and careful nursing many must suffer greatly, and probably
perish, that might have been restored to health and comfort, and become
useful to themselves, their families, and the public, for many years after."
~Benjamin Franklin (1751)
