Joining a growing trend, physicians at Mary Bridge Children's Hospital in Tacoma are trying to unionize. "We really want to be able to have a voice, have a seat at the table and work with them and be a little bit more collaborative. And we think this unionization effort is the best way to do that," said Derek Tam, a pediatric emergency physician at the hospital. The desire to unionize, Tam said, has been motivated by changes that have been made across the hospital. He says that staff feel those changes impact the quality of care they can provide to patients.
