Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital registered nurses plan to picket Dec. 13

Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital registered nurses plan to hold an informational picket the morning of Dec. 13 on the hospital grounds in Grass Valley. The picket is the result of the hospital’s decision to eliminate “essential charge nurse positions and cut nurses aide staff,” according to a news release from the California Nurses Association. The result has led to an increase workload for registered nurses, the release states.
